Dr. Ringstrom will discuss his model for doing relational couples work. Treatment goals include the actualization of self-experience in an intimate relationship, the capacity for mutual recognition, and the relationship having a mind of its own. Based on his book, A Relational Psychoanalytic Approach to Couples Psychotherapy, Dr. Ringstrom will describe the six steps in which these themes are achieved. The steps wed theory and practice, are non-linear, and offer specific clinical guidelines for working with couples. His presentation will use illustrative clinical material to bring the concepts to life. An engaging and stimulating presenter, Dr. Ringstrom will combine didactic material with extensive audience interaction. A master at using playfulness and improvisation in therapy, he has an amazing talent for making complex concepts clear in practical ways.
