Title: Countertransference in couples therapy
Description: This book recognizes that therapy is an intersubjective process between people and that everyone involved has multiple feelings in the course of treatment. Countertransference refers to the complex set of reactions therapists experience in their work with clients - in this case, couples. In a remarkably honest manner, the contributing authors present cases in which their countertransference informed the therapy (and sometimes tripped them up).

All therapists need to understand and deal with their own feelings in order to understand and deal with their patients. This thoughtful and stimulating book demonstrates the personal and professional gains that result from attending to countertransference in couples therapy.
