Double-Edged Swords: Understanding Transference and Countertransference in Non-analytic Therapy by Judith A. Schaeffer, Ph.D.
__________________
When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.

This was probably the most detailed reading on the topic I've ever come across on the internet. It took me a few hours.
Thanks.
Thanks for this!

She did a great job explaining counter/transference. I've never seen so much in one place before, and think it's a great resource.
Thanks for this!
