Description

Description:

The classic fairytale Beauty and the Beast contains the fundamental ingredients of a relationship. This presentation introduces the "uses of enchantment" in brief marital therapy through a discussion of this ancient story. It also examines two developmental models that illustrate that journey. Awareness of archetypal forces in "couplemaking" facilitate concise, precise and to-the-point clinical interventions.

Educational Objectives:

  1. To describe the uses of "enchantment" to learn the skills of living together.
  2. Given a couple's impasse, name four predictable stages of development.
