{"value"=>"<p> <span class=\"title\">Case Study: Countertransference Reactions with a Private Client.</span></p> <p>In my placement at the Huguenot Center there were many clients with whom I could have worked, but I was drawn to one in particular, Alice. For reasons unknown to me, my heart went out to this woman and I felt that I could help her. I discovered while working with her that there were areas in which I felt stuck and didn't know why. I was unable to get past my own blocks to gain the necessary insight to help her. The subject of countertransference came up in a psychology course and gave me the idea that my feelings had to do with this phenomena.</p> <p>In researching the literature I looked at various points of view and found that I align my thinking with those writers that embrace the “totalistic” stance. As my therapeutic modality I used art and verbal therapy as well as dance therapy to facilitate communication. The phase study is an analysis of my countertransference reactions.</p> <p>This study shows that my countertransference feelings affected our therapeutic relationship. When I studied the videotapes and logs I was amazed at how much my countertransference reactions affected how I ran my sessions. Rather than a process to be avoided, countertransference can be a useful and instructive tool. Though I succeeded in making a positive therapeutic relationship with my client and actually got her to move, had I understood my countertransference feelings better I could have been more effective.</p>"}
