Psychoanalytic Couple Therapy

United Kingdom · CPD points & talks · Psychologists

Psychoanalytic couple therapy is based on the fascinating premise that the unconscious has a defining role to play in couple relationships. Tertia Myers, a Johannesburg-based psychoanalytic psychotherapist with a special interest in psychoanalytic couple's therapy, explores some of the fundamental concepts of this field. This illuminating talk offers therapists who are interested in the inner workings of the couple relationship insights into the couple psyche and couple fit, the meanings of conflicts around sex, money, and children, and the role of the psychoanalytic couple therapist.
