Description

 

Description: This workshop is designed for couple’s therapists who have trained in the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy. Increase your skills in effective confrontation and incisive resolution of intrapsychic conflicts. Bring some of your toughest challenges and join Ellyn Bader and Sue Diamond-Potts to strengthen your ability to confront and transform those unrelenting couples’ impasses.

Syllabus Description: This workshop demonstrates advanced couples therapy techniques using a developmental model. Ellen Bader works with a conflict-avoidant couple experiencing aftermath of an affair, guiding them to confront emotional challenges, build mutual accountability, and enhance relationship differentiation. The session highlights strategies for honest communication, understanding individual needs, and developing resilience through authentic self-expression. Participants examine complex relationship dynamics, addressing emotional barriers, sexual intimacy, and personal growth within partnerships.

Educational Objectives:

  1. Identify internal impasses clearly.
  2. Delineate issues for each partner and prevent the blurring of boundaries.
  3. Demonstrate how Initiator-Inquirer concepts are used to address developmental deficits.
