The race of the therapist can play a significant role in the manifestation of transference and counter-transference phenomena in inter-racial psychotherapy. References to the race of therapist may be the first sign of a developing transference relationship. Failure to appreciate the impact of racial difference can impede therapeutic progress while sensitive confrontation may be a valuable tool in the recognition and communication of emotionally charged feelings in therapy. Dream material is influenced by the race of the therapist who may be less easy to disguise in dreams, and the therapist may avoid certain dream interpretations because of unacknowledged discomfort about race. These observations have implications for the supervisory process in training and for the general issue of the influence of the person of the therapist on the process of psychotherapy.
在跨种族心理治疗中，治疗师的种族在移情和反移情现象的表现中可能起着重要作用。提及治疗师的种族可能是正在形成的移情关系的首个迹象。未能认识到种族差异的影响可能会阻碍治疗进展，而敏感的对峙可能是治疗中识别和交流充满情感的感受的宝贵工具。梦的素材会受到治疗师种族的影响，治疗师在梦中可能较难被伪装，并且治疗师可能会因对种族问题未被承认的不适感而避免某些梦的解读。这些观察结果对培训中的督导过程以及治疗师个人对心理治疗过程的影响这一普遍问题都具有启示意义。
