Abstract(s)
Therapeutic alliance has been widely recognized as an important predictor of psychotherapy outcome across therapeutic orientations (Horvath et al., 2011). In particular, evidence suggests that client rated alliance and assessment at early stages of the therapeutic process may be especially relevant (Constantino et al., 2002; Horvath & Bedi, 2002). Although several determinants of alliance have been investigated in the last decades, few studies have analyzed the interaction between therapists’ and clients’ attachment orientations for predicting alliance development (see Daniel, 2006). On the other hand, the kind and severity of the clients’ problems pose different challenges on the therapeutic alliance. Presumably, therapists’ capacity to manage countertransference (CT) demands coming from these dimensions will influence the extent to which the alliance is affected.
