  • Exploring Meaning in Life and Crisis Experiences with Graduate Counseling Students
    Article 14 Exploring Meaning in Life and Crisis Experiences With Graduate Counseling Students Lorraine M. Dinkel and Roxane L. Dufrene Dinkel, Lorraine M., is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Professional Programs at Texas A & M International University, Laredo, Texas. Dufrene, Roxane L., is an Associate Professor in the Department of Educational Leadership, Counseling, and Foundations at the University of New Orleans . Abstract In this study, the authors explored graduate counseling students’ meaning in life and their crisis experiences across age groups. The theoretical framework was based on Frankl’s theory of logotherapy. Today, we can find many parallels to Frankl’s descriptions of suffering in the disasters experienced by graduate counseling students. Discoveries of graduate counseling students’ meaning in life with crisis experiences are outlined with suggestions for future training. Viktor Frankl (1984) proposed that individuals can find meaning in their lives through their suffering. In 1946, Man’s Search for Meaning documented Frankl’s observations of Jewish prisoners and how they transcended their suffering in the concentration camps. He wrote specifically about two prisoners who were suicidal and how finding purpose aided their survival of the suffering surrounding them. Frankl believed that suffering is part of living and that finding meaning in life through suffering is critical for healing (Frankl, 1984; Lantz, 1992). Frankl’s (1984) description of logotherapy indicated that his theory focused on the future and meanings to be fulfilled by an individual. Logos is a Greek word which is defined as “meaning.” Frankl’s focus was on the meaning of existence and the search for meaning.

Asya Tsarkova Exploring Clinicians’ Experience of Countertransference in Play Therapy ABSTRACT The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore clinicians’ experience of countertransference in play therapy. Through semi-structured individual interviews with twelve clinicians, narrative data was collected on the ways in which clinicians experience, process, and utilize countertransference in play therapy. Some of the findings of this study support previous research and theoretical literature on countertransference in the field of child psychotherapy. Additionally, this study’s findings introduce the possibility that specific aspects of play therapy have a unique effect on the experience and processing of countertransference in play therapy due to the nature of this therapeutic modality.

  • Transference and Countertransference
    Washington Center for Psychoanalysis Psychoanalytic Studies Program, 2018-2019 TRANSFERENCE AND COUNTERTRANSFERENCE 18 December 2018- 19 March 2019 Tuesday: 5:30-6:45 Faculty: David Joseph and Pavel Snejnevski “I believe it is ill-advised, indeed impossible, to treat transference and countertransference as separate issues. They are two faces of the same dynamic rooted in the inextricable intertwining with others in which individual life originates and remains throughout the life of the individual in numberless elaborations, derivatives, and transformations. One of the transformations shows itself in the encounter of the psychoanalytic situation.” Hans Loewald Transference and Countertransference OVERVIEW OF THE COURSE Although it was first formulated by Freud, transference, as we currently understand it, is integral to all meaningful human relationships. In a treatment relationship characterized by the therapist’s professional but friendly interest, relative anonymity, neutrality regarding how patients conduct their lives, non-judgmental attitude, and a shared conviction that associating freely and speaking without censorship will best facilitate the goals of the treatment, patients come to experience the therapist in ways that are powerfully and unconsciously shaped by aspects of earlier important relationships. The patient is often not aware that he is “transferring” these earlier experiences to the therapist but is also often completely unaware of “transferred” reactions to the therapist that only become manifest as the treatment relationship develops. Laboratory experiments in animals demonstrate neurophysiological processes that cast light on the processes that contribute to transference reactions in humans. If a rat is trained to respond negatively to the sound of a bell that is paired with an electric shock, recordings from a single cell in the structure of the brain that responds to fear will indicate nerve firing.

Vol. 7, No. 2, 2019, pp. 43-51. doi: 10.11648/j.ajpn.20190702.13 Received : May 23, 2019; Accepted : June 20, 2019; Published : July 23, 2019 Abstract: Viktor Frankl, MD, PhD is one of the most widely known and highly respected professors of psychiatry and neurology of the twentieth century. In this article, we adapt and apply some of his profound insights for Catholic pastoral counseling education. Pastoral counseling is a very important aspect of the general pastoral formation of Catholic seminarians. The goal of any pastoral counseling course should be twofold. First, it should give seminarians a basic knowledge of mental illnesses to understand their parishioners better. Second, it should offer them concrete techniques to be used in the context of pastoral counseling. Seminary classes in pastoral psychology and counseling sometimes lack a consistent, coherent theoretical foundation, or may attempt to teach techniques inappropriate for use by future parish priests. This paper presents a logotherapeutic approach for the formation of seminarians in pastoral counseling.

The law and our professional Codes of Ethics by themselves cannot address most of the situations encountered by therapists and their clients in the difficult work of psychotherapy with traumatized people. The law and code are both narrative and literal and the real territory of ethics is ruled by more implicit boundaries, which prohibit actions that betray the client and the therapist. This unchartered territory is the dangerous ground of the therapy relationship, and in which we must steady our course to make rational, relational decisions to protect the client, the relationship and ourselves. THE TRAUMA TRIANGLE VICTIM PERPETRATOR WITNESS/ RESCUER COLLUDING OR POWERLESS TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCES Psychological trauma can be anything that is too much for the person to manage emotionally. There are a variety of life events that are traumatic to a person, including some experiences that for one person may be overwhelming and not overwhelming to another. For Example: SEXUAL ABUSE PHYSICAL ABUSE/BATTERING RAPE FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION NEGLECT EXPERIENCE OF BEING OVER-CONTROLLED OR MONITORED EXPERIENCE OF BEING CRITICIZED OR BLAMED WITNESS TO ABUSE OF ANY KIND TO ANOTHER TORTURE/IMPRISONMENT POVERTY/HUNGER WAR/COMBAT TRAUMA EARLY LOSS OF A PARENT LOSS OF A CHILD OR SIBLING DISABILITY/ CHRONIC ILLNESS IN A PARENT / SIBLING CHRONIC ILLNESS, REPEATED HOSPITALIZATIONS, TERMINAL ILLNESS ACCIDENTS: AUTO, FIRE, MANUFACTURING, ETC.

  • Introduction to Jungian Psychotherapy: the Therapeutic Relationship
    Introduction to Jungian Psychotherapy The unique relationship between patient and therapist is the main healing factor in psychotherapy. Following C.G.Jung’s pioneering views on the complexity of conscious and unconscious interactions in the therapy process, this book explains the Jungian approach to the therapeutic relationship and the treatment process. Introduction to Jungian Psychotherapy: The Therapeutic Relationship shows how taking a Jungian perspective can help deal with the complicated paradoxes of psychotherapy. David Sedgwick outlines a modern Jungian approach to psychotherapy, always with reference to the patient-therapist relationship itself. He considers and criticises key aspects of Jungian and other theoretical perspectives, synthesizing approaches and ideas from across the therapeutic spectrum. This meditation on Jungian therapy will be invaluable to both Jungian and non-Jungian students and practitioners. David Sedgwick is a Jungian analyst and clinical psychologist in Charlottesville, Virginia. He is the author of The Wounded Healer: Countertransference from a Jungian Perspective (1994) and Jung and Searles: A Comparative Study (1993), and numerous articles and book reviews.

  • Hate in the Counter-Transference
    CLASSIC ARTICLE To speak openly about feelings of hate toward a patient in 1949 was a daring act. For a statement of such feelings to come from the kindly pediatri- cian/psychoanalyst D. W. Winnicott was truly extraordinary. Winnicott broke new ground in psychoanalysis by stressing the importance of the holding environment as a healing factor in treatment. He conceived of many of his patients as suffering from a developmental arrest that required a reactivation ofthe developmental process in the psychoanalytic setting. In that regard there was a maternal cast to much of his writing that separated it from the more paternalistic character of Freud’s writings. Indeed, Winnicott’s experience as a pediatrician undoubtedly influenced him to focus his attention on a detailed explication of the early mother-infant relationship. This classic article was influential for a variety of reasons. First, it signaled a shift from the narrow Freudian view ofcountertransference (as the analyst’s transference to the patient) to a broader view that Winnicott termed “objective counter-transference. “ Freud had originally understood countertransference as an obstacle to psychoanalytic work that was based on the analyst’s uncon- scious perception of the patient as a figure from the analyst’s past. In “Hate in the Counter-transference,” Winnicott describes a broader form of counter- transference that is objective in the sense that it is an understandable and “normal” reaction to the patient’s actual personality and behavior. This total- istic form of countertransference is now widely accepted in all quarters (al- though many would argue that it frequently coexists with the narrow variant Freud described).
