projection. doctor feels like slapping her own duaghter and projects her undesirable thoughts onto her patient. I think displacement would be if the doctor displaced her anger at her daughter towards something else (for ex. kicking the family dog/slamming the front door)

Counter-transference


In psychotherapy , counter-transference is a condition where the therapist, as a result of the therapy sessions, begins to transfer the therapist's own unconscious feelings to the patient. For example, a therapist might have a strong desire for a client to get all 'A's' in university because the client reminds her of her children at that stage in life, and the anxieties that the therapist experienced during that time.



Transference has to do with certain - but not all - feelings a client can have towards a therapist, countertransference to do with certain - but not all - feelings a therapist can have towards a client.
