What is this thing called love? Did Freud, Keats and Shelley know? This workshop focuses on the importance of maintaining healthy romantic love, sexual and intimate relations and how people with personality disorders can destroy its capacity. It offers specific theoretical approaches and communication techniques to explore the unconscious elements and primitive defenses. It also explsind on how and why couples stay in painful, conflictual, destructive, never ending, relationships (traumatic bonding) or what I describe in my previous books as “the dance.” In this workshop here will be plenty opportunity for case examples and role play.
