Abstract
This is a case presentation of a 27 year old single gay man who presented for psychotherapy treatment after being treated for a life-threatening physical illness. The case presentation focuses on the vicissitudes of a gay therapist treating a gay patient. Treatment is described through a series of ongoing dreams illustrating transference issues. An enactment between the therapist and the patient focuses on countertransference issues as well.
