It is commonly agreed that doing couple counselling is difficult for young professionals, even experienced ones. Couples come to therapy because they cannot talk to one another. There are many issues unfold in sessions with their different histories, psychologies, and copings. It is further loaded with challenging topics from concrete ones such as money, sex, and parenting to abstract ones on love, power or autonomy that quest for regulation and attunement. All these demands the therapist to juggle the balance in keeping the couple to engage and in the working of their problems so that they can differentiate and step up to grow in relationship. This is the aim of this workshop on guiding therapist how to integrate the concept of person-centered approach in actively seeking to understand and to accept the clients’ presence; and the gestalt relational perspective in understanding client’s contact-making in their intimate relationship regarding their self-process. It may help participants to understand the client in wider perspectives regarding their suffering human nature that tackle their impasses and to open more course for change in the relationship.
