Description
Description:
Overtly angry and passive-aggressive partners often present the most difficulty for therapists. They frequently demand intimacy, while being unable to create the conditions for intimacy to occur or be sustained. They require a high level of activity from you to structure treatment, manage hostility in the office and confront hypocrisies that keep their development stalled. Learn to increase your personal strengths to harness the enormous developmental potential that exists in these couples.
Educational Objectives:
- Develop 5 Core Competencies for effectively managing angry, fighting couples.
- Confront Paradoxes and Hypocrisies that support regression and maintain negative cycles.
