Abstract
To state the obvious, clients and therapists are humans. Yet we become so proficient and well trained as psychotherapists that we inevitably lose our humanness. This article shows how this happens by distinguishing between genuine Free Child and learned Free Child and how maintaining some form of genuineness with clients is possible using the contact contract.
