WOLFF, Cíntia  y  FALCKE, Denise. A contratransferência na clínica psicanalítica contemporânea. Aná. Psicológica [online]. 2011, vol.29, n.2, pp.201-214. ISSN 0870-8231.

Currently, the counter-transference has gained relevance in the therapeutic context, to be seen as a working instrument of the psychotherapist. The objective was to understand how the countertransference has been used by psychoanalytic psychotherapists in order to deepen the knowledge on how occurs in clinical practice. We interviewed three psychotherapists, chosen by the criterion of convenience. The reports were arranged in four categories defined a priori from the literature review and goals for research. The results showed that the counter-transference was regarded as a tool that helps in understanding the patient and what happens in the session. It is used as a therapeutic resource, but its use raises care. One of the interviewees did not reveal his counter-transference, while the other two reveal in some situations. Anger, irritation and impotence were considered difficult feelings of counter-transference, as well as those caused by patients with disorders of character, sexual perversion and addiction. It was concluded that psychotherapists who participated in the study take into account the feelings and the unconscious meanings of what occurs between therapist-patient, whereas the real person of the psychotherapist also through the entire analytical process.
