Wow! That certainly answers some of the questions I've been asking myself repeatedly for months!
I'm so glad this issue came up, because I've read all sorts of stuff about transference and different approaches to clinical practice and this is the first time I've encountered the idea of discouraging transference (although I did see stuff about not interpreting transference in short term therapy, which sounds like something slightly different).
But if transference does occur despite being discouraged, and if despite occurring it's not brought into the therapeutic frame, what happens to the client? Isn't it a source of anxiety and shame?
