The ubiquity of countertransferential and other personal responses in progression deliberations.

Int J Psychoanal

December 2024

Training and Supervising Analyst, Faculty and former Chair, Student Progression Committee, Psychoanalytic Association of New York (PANY) affiliated with NYU Grossman School of Medicine, New York, NY, USA.

Countertransferential and other types of personal responses to candidates are inevitable among psychoanalytic educators, whether they be supervisors, progression advisors, the progression committee as a whole, or course instructors. Nonetheless many educators remain unaware of these phenomena - despite the robust literature on this subject in supervisors - perhaps because we do not like to think of ourselves as having potentially deleterious personal reactions to younger colleagues with whom we have significant and highly valued relationships. This paper emphasizes the role of such phenomena in progression advisors' deliberations about candidates' development, as well as in the committee as a whole - a subject not addressed in the literature.
