ANNUAL PSYCHOANALYTIC COUPLE PSYCHOTHERAPY LECTURE 2021

Join PCPG for our annual lecture (via Zoom) as we host Dr. Amita Sehgal of Tavistock Relations who will be presenting, "Viewing the Absence of Sex from Couple Relationships through the Core Complex Lens." Dr. Sehgal will describe how psychoanalytic couple psychotherapy can be used to work with couples in which the absence of sex is a feature of the relationship. Using a contemporary Freudian perspective, as well as viewing this symptom through Glasser’s core complex lens, she will offer a perspective that highlights the ways in which anxieties arising in the earliest relationship between infant and mother are believed to contribute to the claustro-agorophobic anxieties in adult relating. Additionally, the unconscious dynamics that may be operating in couple relationships in which sex is absent will be explored.
