About the Event

Transference and Countertransference can be challenging topics to address in supervision, and left unchecked, they can wreak havoc on the counseling or supervisory relationship. Counselors in training often struggle to understand transference and countertransference and may rely on their supervisors for help with this. Supervisors may also experience this phenomenon and there is often a need for new or optimal ways to address it. There are many levels to transference and countertransference including: client transference, counselor countertransference toward the client, counselor transference toward the supervisor, and supervisor countertransference toward the supervisee.

Understanding these levels and learning to set appropriate boundaries to address them can go a long way in preventing problems in both the counseling relationship and the supervisory relationship. This interactive webinar explores transference and countertransference in the supervisory relationship and offers techniques to address them in order to create better and more productive counseling and supervisory relationships.

Live Event This is a live online event. It will be conducted via Zoom Webinar.
