Constituting the main framework and structural features of psychotherapy, therapeutic frame is studied from various perspectives in terms of its different aspects and functions. This case study aimed both to illustrate the practices of therapeutic frame and to discuss the role of therapeutic frame in understanding the emotional needs and internal representations of a depressive client. The case was presenting with depressive mood and a number of relationship conflicts. Psychotherapy process was conducted during clinical psychology education of the therapist in accordance with object relations theory framework. Concepts of transference and countertransference were also integrated in this context in order to examine the relational patterns and developmental characteristics. The effects of possible cultural factors on therapeutic frame's functions and transference-countertransference dynamics were also discussed. All in all, the assessment of interpersonal and intrapersonal boundaries, planning the interventions, and elaborating on the presenting problems in psychotherapy are concluded to be closely related to the therapeutic frame's functions of containment and external reality for this case example.
