The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating effect of countertransference management ability on the relationship between self-efficacy and therapeutic alliance of play therapist. The subjects of this study were 204 play therapists who work in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, Incheon-based child counseling centers, play therapy rooms in welfare centers, play therapy rooms in hospitals, and university-based play therapy rooms were used. The play therapists reponded to the survey on Counseling Self-Estimate Inventory(COSE), Countertransference Factors Inventory(CFI), Working Alliance Inventory(WAI). The collected data was analyzed using the Pearson's correlation analysis and the Baron and Kenny(1986) mediating effect analysis. Additionally, Sobel's(1982) test was used to verify the significance of the mediation effect. The results are as follows: First, self-efficacy was positively associated with countertransference management abilities and therapeutic alliances amongst play therapists. Second, the total score of countertransference management ability (self-integration, empathy ability, anxiety management) had a partially mediating effct on the relationship between play therapist's self-efficacy and therapeutic alliances. In conclusion, play therapist's higher self-efficacy and countertransference management abilities should be developed to improve their therapeutic alliances.
