- Short Description:
- This talk presents the core principles of Relational Recovery Therapy, focusing on the relational imbalance between men and women. It examines the enduring 50% divorce rate and the impact of traditional gender roles—men socialized for dominance, women increasingly seeking emotional intimacy. The approach calls for therapists to support women’s empowerment while helping men confront grandiosity and develop relational accountability, aiming to foster mutual connection and growth.
