Countertransference in focal psychotherapy
Abstract:
The authors discuss the role and development of countertransference in brief psychotherapy. Factors inherent to the goals, setting and techniques of brief therapy appear to undercut the development of a regressive countertransference. The countertransference phenomena that seem to be more prevalent in brief treatment are those stemming from the reality-based response of the therapist to the patient. The impact of these factors on patient selection and treatment outcome in brief therapy are discussed.
