She will describe her work with two overlapping areas of difficulty in couples - first, the couples' unconscious beliefs about what a relationship is; and second, the effect of each partner's internal world on that of the other. She will employ detailed clinical material to illustrate how exploring and interpreting these two areas of unconscious beliefs help bring the couple into closer contact with reality and bring about change. Dr. Milton Schaefer will be the discussant and there will be a case presentation by Dr. Rachel Cooke.
