Abstract
- This paper illustrates the role of supervision in processing countertransference responses which might have disrupted the therapist's empathy with a patient who had killed her child. The clinical material demonstrates how the therapist's responses of initial denial and subsequent disgust and fear were dealt with in supervision. As a result, the treatment process led to genuine, albeit limited, therapeutic change in a patient with severe character pathology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
