Erotic Transference and the Place of Love in The Therapeutic Relationship Masterclass
Erotic transference and love in psychotherapy are phenomena that highlight the depth and complexity of the therapeutic relationship. When managed ethically, thoughtfully, and compassionately, exploration of these dynamics can deepen the therapeutic process, offering profound opportunities for understanding and transformation – for both therapist and client.
Masterclass Summary
Through engaging powerpoint slides and large and small group discussions, we will reflect together on all of the above aspects of Erotic Transference and Love. We will consider how we can work effectively with this phenomena whilst also accounting for the significance of our own cultural narratives, our internal bias and the power dynamics within the transferential therapeutic relationship.
Join us on this masterclass and enrich your therapeutic practice and foster meaningful connections with your clients.
