Countertransference and Ethics


Program Description

In this interview, we take a close look at countertransference, often at the root of ethical transgressions. For clarification, briefly, countertransference is defined as redirection of a psychotherapist's feelings toward a client—or, more generally, as a therapist's emotional entanglement with a client.
We can know the ethical codes of our professions backwards and forwards, but when our personal feelings get involved, it’s awfully easy to find ways to rationalize and justify our actions.

Learning Objectives

Identify the difference between the friendship and a psychotherapeutic relationship.
Recognize when a countertransference response becomes a betrayal of the therapeutic bond and promise.
Explain when to use the 5-second rule in the therapeutic relationship.
