Book ticketsOrganised by:

Description
The event:
Infidelity is a distressing and common theme in couple therapy, and one which has a high prevalence despite societal condemnation. For both partners, an intense relationship outside the primary one can be interpersonally traumatising. There are usually multiple determinants, but the need to know why it happened can be very strong, leading to destructive exchanges and emotional turmoil. This training event will explore the complex themes that arise when infidelity in its various forms impacts on the couple relationship
