- Title
La Alianza Terapéutica en Terapia Sexual de parejas: Una aproximación clínica.
- Authors
Flores Vera, Manuel
- Abstract
This article presents some clinical considerations about the therapeutic alliance in couples sex therapy. In agreement with various authors, the therapist's establishment of a "meta-alliance" with the couple of clients with sexual complaints around their loyalty dimension, avoidance of disruptions, and prioritization of marital distress versus sexual individual symptoms as the primary focus of treatment, all of them primary aspects to consolidate the therapeutic alliance in these cases, is noted. A trans-generational systemic approach, identifying the development of sexual dysfunction between partners with their early family-of-origin distress, is emphasized (a case illustration is presented). Finally, clinical aspects referred to construction of therapeutic context in couples sex therapy, in particular with regard to the person of the therapist, are considered.
