COUN-5090: Effectively Using Countertransference

Students learn a step-by-step process to work with countertransference that inevitably shows up in the therapeutic relationship between the client and the clinician. Countertransference can be defined as the thoughts and feelings that clinicians experience about their clients. All too often, clinicians avoid noticing and working with countertransference because they do not have a process by which to effectively work with it. Learning to recognize counter transference - and take advantage of the valuable opportunities it provides - is essential to maintaining the therapeutic rapport and to avoiding burnout and compassion fatigue.
