Description
Here, cases highlight therapists’ reaction to couples’ problems. Countertransference refers to the therapist’s complex reaction to clients, in this case, couples. Rather than viewing this response as an obstacle, the authors see it as both inevitable and productive. The book examines not only classic countertransference issues, but also the ramifications of the therapist’s values and experiences. The contributors deal with illness, death, suicide, pregnancy, hatred, rage, envy, sexuality, lust and burnout.
