[Audio] EP09 Workshop 04 – One Foot Out the Door: Working with Couples on the Brink – Michele Weiner-Davis, MSW

Description:

Few couples seem as unlikely to profit from therapy as those in which one partner as already decided to leave. Yet, even atthis point, a therapist has an opportunity to turn the situation around. In this workshop, you will learn how to step in, even at the 11th hour, and help couples with seemingly intractable problems – hopelessness, ongoing affairs, and one spouse’s unwillingness to seek therapy, to resolve their difficulties, recommit to their marriage, and reclaim their lives.

Educational Objectives:

1. To list three strategies for working with a spouse who won’t end an affair.
2. To describe three techniques for doing couples therapy with one spouse.
