Entendiendo a la pareja Marcos teóricos para el trabajo terapéutico

Using the theoretical approaches that have guided their practices as a springboard, eight Latin-American therapists review the changes in behavioral patterns between men and women that have taken place in recent years, as well as what it means to be a therapist in the modern day. Among the topics explored in this book are the patriarchal and matriarchal histories of couples in Mexican society, spirituality in the development of the marital relationship, lust and love in a narcissistic postmodernity, overcoming the crisis of infidelity, new ways of living as a couple, and the help that a therapist can provide. Given its analysis of the changes that have occurred over the past few decades to the traditional structures and functions of a couple, this book proves to be an invaluable resource for couples looking to better their understanding of themselves, as well as for the therapists that seek to help them.

Usando como punto de partida los enfoques teóricos que han guiado su práctica, ocho terapeutas latinoamericanos revisan tanto los cambios en los patrones de relación de hombres y mujeres que han ocurrido en los últimos años así como lo que significa ser terapeuta en la actualidad. Entre los temas explorados en este libro se encuentran las historias patriarcal y matriarcal de la pareja en la sociedad mexicana, la espiritualidad en el crecimiento de la relación conyugal, el enamoramiento y el amor en una posmodernidad narcisista, la superación de la crisis de infidelidad, las nuevas formas de vida en pareja y la ayuda que puede ofrecer un terapeuta. Con su análisis de los cambios que se han llevado a cabo en la estructura y funcionamiento tradicionales de la pareja durante las últimas décadas, este libro resulta un recurso invaluable tanto para la pareja que busca mejorar su comprensión de sí misma como para el terapeuta que busca ayudarle.
