5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book for anyone learning the art of psychotherapy, December 13, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Between Therapist and Client: The New Relationship (Paperback)

As a graduate student newly entering the world of psychotherapy from a professional standpoint, I found Michael Kahn's book a real reading treasure. His explanations of issues such as transference (and countertransference), and the way in which these phenomena have been viewed over time, was interesting to read and valuable learning for any therapist-to-be. He does a beautiful job of taking theoretical information and explaining it in such a way that it can be understood and utilized immediately with clients. Also, Michael brings a personal touch to his book which I found increases it's worth even further. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in learning about psychotherapy, particularly self-psychology; and I sincerely hope he decides to write more in the future!

5.0 out of 5 stars An essential for the budding therapist, March 20, 2002

By A Customer

This is a clear, well-written book that examines those elements of the therapist-client relationship which can either be therapeutic or anti-therapeutic. Kahn gives a brief overview of the different perspectives of transference/countertransference and how to use these aspects effectively while avoiding common pitfalls. I strongly recommend this text for beginning graduate students of psychotherapy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must on Transference, December 20, 2007

By	Dr. Robert Hackler "Grandpa Spells" (Orlando, Fl. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Michael Kahn's book is, by far, the best treatment of the therapist-client relationship which we call "transference". My professional organization, the American Association of Pastoral Counselors, regularly has workshops on this theme (and counter-transference) at its annual conferences, because as Kahn says, psychotherapy is only as successful as the relationship the therapist has with his client. It amazes me that, to the best of my knowledge, the state prescribed curriculum for psychology here in Florida offers no credit for courses on this topic. Nevertheless, I strongly recommend this book for this crucial subject.
