This study was conducted to investigate the effects of covid-19 pandemic on mother's child-rearing style and provide information on mother-rearing. The significance of regression coefficients was verified to investigate the factors affecting warm parenting and control parenting, and the effect of separation and individualization on warm parenting (β=-).40, p <.001). Moreover, covid infection has a positive effect on controlled child care (β=.21, p=.002), and separation has a significant effect on controlled child care (β=-26, p<.001). Based on the results of these studies, we can see that the strong belief in mother-rearing and the separation and individualization of healthy children have a great impact on child growth.

This study presented the role of the counselor's transitional object through literature research, focusing on Winnicott's theory. In the process of development, infants experience anxiety when they move from absolute dependence to relative dependence with their mother. In this way, the counselor's role as an transitional object buffers separation anxiety and depressive anxiety about the loss experience, and mediates from the omnipotent fantasy to the real world. transitional objects are new objects and have a function of contributing to adaptation in reality. And it leads to the stage of separation and individualization through transitional object and transitional phenomena. It can be said that he acquires a sense of the real other that exists in order to create and destroy omnipotent, and to adapt to reality. A good enough mother makes the child's omnipotence meaningful. In this case, the true self helps the infant's weak self to grow and lead him to live his own life. When the mother fails to satisfy the infant's needs, her fantasies and spontaneous impulses are lacking. In other words, when the mother fails to reflect the infant's needs, the infant looks at her mother's mood, giving up her true self and creating a false self. The pathology of the absolute dependence phase is caused by the failure of a good enough mother's empathy and nurturing environment. At this time, the child experiences the collapse of the omnipotence illusion and experiences annihilation anxiety. Therefore, effective counseling can be carried out when providing a comfortable and stable environment by reducing separation anxiety and depressive anxiety of clients through the role of the counselor's transitional object in the counseling field.
