Case Study On Counter-transference

The Counter-transference is an extremely important concept of the psychotherapy. Specially 1970s later, the attitude and occupation of therapist has caught more and more many attention. Research in the past takes patient's role and attitude as starting point, however, as a person, how does therapist's special characteristics and the growth experience affect the mental healing? How does the therapist treat the patient using the negative displacement emotion? How does patient-therapist double model interact each other?First, this article has theoretically combed the Counter-transference development vein, it has experienced three stages: the classical school thought the Counter-transference is a complex which therapist has not completed, it is individual model; The object relations school of the Klein thought the Counter-transference is an approval stimulation by visitor's projection, it is double person model. From the body-center of Neo-Confucianism, in accord with the idealization transference, the fusion transference, the mirror- reflecting transference and the close friend transference, the Counter-transference also belongs to the double person model; The latter modern psychoanalysis of the intersubjectivity thought the visitor is composed of a series of constructions of narrates , so is therapist itself. When meeting, they have constructed a treatment field together. The Counter-transference is the product which the visitor and the therapist interact, the relational therapy emphasized the contribution which the therapist does in the alternative.Next, this article clarifies some basic concepts and mutual relation of these concepts: transference, Counter-transference(the Counter-transference defines merely as the specific intrinsic response to the special moving sentiment of the patient), Counter-transference behavior, container, empathy, projective identification Projective counter-identification. And, it presents treating processes of the projective identificationFinally, this article uses the Qualitative Research methods and interview sound recording to carry on the direct-viewing observation of the case.After presenting 5 cases and the author's growth story, it proves four suppositions and conclude as follows: (1) therapist and the patient need matching indeed, at least, the therapist can close up patient's certain personalities, with therapist shadowing the sick. (2) as the therapist and patient's inner world is too close, the therapist has not solved own complex, , it is very easy to act in the real treatment space and he may be involved in action inevitably. (3) use Counter-transference to examine patient's pathological degree in the early treatment .indeed the examine of patient's pathological degree can be worked, but it cannot judge patient's pathology only according to the negative Counter-transference , specially at the stage when the patient is in particular time. (4) None of response is the pure transference or the Counter-transference. The bilateral behavior can initiate the bilateral construction which leads to its conesponding behaviors. The therapist sympathetic chord or the thorough understanding may provide the turning point for the treatment, moreover, the therapists need to enrich themselves. They do not have only some sole personalities, which cause the limitation to the patient's projection; Finally, the therapist should dare to undertake the treatment responsibility rather than constantly to push the sentiment to the patient.
