Amy Meyers, LCSW

Dr. Amy Meyers, LCSW, is a seasoned psychodynamic psychotherapist and professor, bringing nearly 30 years of experience to her discussion on countertransference. She defines countertransference in-depth, emphasizing the need for self-awareness beyond self-understanding. New clinicians often struggle with this dynamic, misunderstanding its role in therapy. Rather than avoiding it, Amy suggests embracing it as a human aspect of care. She provides practical strategies for managing countertransference and highlights how shared experiences can be navigated thoughtfully in therapeutic settings.
