The personality of the therapist does influence the psychotherapeutic process. Given that therapists are human, they do, in fact, bring into the encounter their moral and cultural, and sometimes even racial, attitudes in spite of efforts to maintain objectivity and neutrality. Ignoring the impact of the therapist-client, organismic variables may lead to spurious research findings and impractical interventions. Research and practical intervention, therefore, should be concerned with matching clients with the most appropriate therapist.
治疗师的个性确实会影响心理治疗过程。鉴于治疗师也是人,实际上,尽管他们努力保持客观性和中立性,但他们还是会将自己的道德、文化乃至种族态度带入治疗过程。忽视治疗师与来访者之间的影响、机体变量可能会导致虚假的研究结果和不切实际的干预措施。因此,研究和实际干预应该关注为来访者匹配最合适的治疗师。
