AnnotationCountertransference refers to unconscious feelings that may surface to consciousness in the clinician. This article provides a technique designed to identify and explore areas of countertransference when working with older adults facing HIV/AIDS. It offers instructors and supervisors a way to teach about countertransference toward older adults facing HIV and AIDS. This technique can be used in a variety of gerontological settings such as mental health clinics and multipurpose centres for older adults, as well as classrooms and private practice. (KJ/RH).
