The Many Shades of Couples Therapy and Working with Sex and Sexual Dysfunction
This 2 hour talk will comprise of two parts. The first will focus on Peter’s experience of working with couples and will explore the many shades of couples therapy that are determined by the different presentations we as therapists encounter (from conflict arising from different character structures and attachment styles where there is underlying good faith, to abusive and manipulative undercurrents where the absence of good faith becomes apparent).
The second part will focus on working with sex and sexual dysfunction in the context of relationship. Attendees will gain insight into different sexual issues and how they are often underpinned by a fear of intimacy or a feeling of disempowerment. The objective is to open up what is often an uncomfortable subject in a straight forward way to support a nurturing of positive, healthy sexuality in couples.
Both parts of the talk will be illustrated by case vignettes and there will be time for Q&A and discussion.
