Socio-Emotional Relationship Therapy: Bridging Emotion, Societal Context, and Couple Interaction

Carmen Knudson-Martin, Melissa A. Wells, "Socio-Emotional Relationship Therapy: Bridging Emotion, Societal Context, and Couple Interaction"
2015 | ISBN-10: 3319133977 | 172 pages | EPUB | 1 MB

​This book describes a new model for clinical work with couples, Socio-Emotional Relationship Therapy (SERT). SERT intervenes in sociocultural processes that interfere with couples experiencing mutually supportive relationships. This approach integrates recent advances in neurobiology with social constructionist understandings of gender, culture, personal identities, and relationship processes. The aim of SERT is to help couples move toward a balanced power dynamic and establish mutuality in the relationship. Transforming power disparities in relationships helps couples move toward a more equal flow of attention and support toward each other.
