Projective Process in Teletherapy with Couples

CEs: 2

Overview

This clinical workshop will explore the uses of teletherapy in the couple environment. Transference and countertransference will be described, and their therapeutic potentials demonstrated by practice vignettes, in reaching the couple on a deep level of holding.
