The vicissitudes of envy comprise some of the most powerful relationships between people. Originally viewed as a character trait, envy is now viewed as occurring in two-person interpersonal interactions. The therapeutic situation is therefore an ideal context in which to examine envy on the part of both therapist and patient. Envy is an intense affect, inhibiting effective behavior, and it may damage the therapeutic relationship in ways not easily recognized by therapist and patient.
嫉妒的变迁包含了一些人与人之间最具影响力的关系。嫉妒最初被视为一种性格特质,现在则被看作是发生在两人之间的人际互动中。因此,治疗情境是一个审视治疗师和患者双方嫉妒心理的理想环境。嫉妒是一种强烈的情感,会抑制有效行为,并且它可能以治疗师和患者不易察觉的方式损害治疗关系。
