PERSONAL TRAITS RELEVANT TO THE PRACTICE OF PSYCHOTHERAPY AND COUNSELING
The process of learning in the mental health field progresses through 4 stages
Stage 1. Unconscious Incompetence
Stage 2. Conscious Incompetence
Stage 3. Conscious Competence
Stage 4. Unconscious Competence
PERSONAL TRAITS RELEVANT TO THE PRACTICE OF PSYCHOTHERAPY AND COUNSELING Stage I. Unconscious Incompetence When students believe common sense and
motivation are sufficient to do the job.
When you realized that there are things you need to learn and you need to develop insight into problems then, you are ready for the next stage.
PERSONAL TRAITS RELEVANT TO THE PRACTICE OF PSYCHOTHERAPY AND COUNSELING Stage II. Conscious Incompetence
Meaning being aware of mistakes, admitting errors in judgments, recognizing poor choices of strategies.
Can lead to self-doubt or a desire for learning, guidance, and supervision which lead you to stage 3..
PERSONAL TRAITS RELEVANT TO THE PRACTICE OF PSYCHOTHERAPY AND COUNSELING Stage III. Conscious Competence Can be cognitively exhausting. However, at some point the work gets easier
and skills begin to come automatically. Once you have learned the basics necessary to do good- therapeutic work, you would be ready for stage 4.
PERSONAL TRAITS RELEVANT TO THE PRACTICE OF PSYCHOTHERAPY AND COUNSELING
Stage IV Unconscious Competence At this stage you no longer afraid of possible
challenges presented by clients because you have reached a health level of self-awareness, had developed open-mindedness and flexibility.
The biggest threat in this stage is called “Automatic Pilot.”

HINDERING TRAITS OF MENTAL HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS

problems in the world alone and they should never rely on other resources to help the client heal or grow. They ought to know everything.

Some clinicians do the same thing day in and day out. They use the same intervention with each client whether is relevant and effective or not.
4. Therapist needs can interfere with psychotherapy:
Such as: needs to be admired needs to be accepted needs to be respected needs for power to guide (awe)
HINDERING TRAITS OF MENTAL HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS

human experience either in the self or in the client:
such as divorce, maternal or paternal feelings

in the client’s life and the client becomes emotionally attached to therapist.
Such figures are parent, husband, wife, etc.,. (unconscious)
Countertransference: Therapist response to the client’s
transference (unconscious)
4 TYPES OF COUNTERTRANSFERENCE 1. Issue-specific countertranference:
2. Stimulus-specific countertranference
3. Trait specific countertranference
4. Client-specific countertranference
4 TYPES OF COUNTERTRANSFERENCE 1. Issue-specific countertransference: Deals with specific behavior, feelings,
and needs expressed by a client.
Clinician reactions to a client’s issues are
flavored by personal needs, attitude, values, beliefs or traits that the clinician is not aware of.

4 TYPES OF COUNTERTRANSFERENCE 3. Trait specific countertransference Deals with the clinicians response to
clients as they tend to respond to anyone at anytime in their lives. It is automatic and unconscious. It is for those clinicians who need to control and influence others.
Ex: Client is upset about her husband and having marital problems, therapist telling her, to divorce him, he doesn’t deserve you, etc,.
Other examples are: Very religious clinicians, Rigid clinicians,
4 TYPES OF COUNTERTRANSFERENCE
4. Client-specific countertransference This will add insight and empathy to
counseling and is the only good countertransference as long as the clinician knows and is aware that his/her reaction being specific to the client’s situation.
Ex:Client cries, therapist cries with him/her, not
because therapist is having problems but because therapist feels the client’s pain.
