Description
Description:
This presentation will propose a diagnostic assessment of the couple, specifying their conflicts at the level of their sexual life, their integration of expectations regarding daily living together, and potential discrepancies regarding their value systems, including their overall social integration. On this basis, a diagnostic assessment of unconscious reactivation in both partners of unresolved conflicts in their relation with their parental couples may determine the strategy of therapeutic interventions.
Educational Objectives:
- Assess severity and concrete characteristics of a couple’s dominant conflicts.
- Construct specific therapeutic interventions based on the psychodynamic understanding of a couple’s dominant relational conflicts.
