Idealizing Transference »
Purpose of Idealization
Our view parallels that of the Jungian analyst, Schwartz-Salant, who thinks that idealization can have a primarily defensive purpose, blocking painful or threatening feelings, "...or else it can represent the healthy mobilization of the positive Self in the form of projection: one's own better or potential qualities are transferred to another and experienced as a characteristic of that person."
