Abstract

Therapist errors are unavoidable in the psychotherapeutic process. This article examines their impact on the therapeutic relationship, both intrapsychic and interpersonal. The author describes several sources of these errors and examines the process by which these lapses can and should be repaired by the therapist. He questions whether these errors are not only inevitable but also necessary to the therapeutic process.
