A note on counter-transference and anti-Semitism.
After a brief introduction where the meaning of racism is alluded to, a clinical vignette is presented. A patient who has suppressed her antisemitic feelings is being treated by a Jewish psychiatrist. The therapist's possible counter-transference motives in treating the patient are explored, and a workable solution is offered.
