Subject outline
In this unit students undertake a prescribed reading program to provide theoretical understanding and practice skills required to work therapeutically with couples. There is an emphasis on the importance of theoretical integration, with a focus on systemic, psychodynamic and integrated behavioural theories. Other areas covered include: sexuality, jealousy and affairs, the family life cycle, family violence, gender, separation and loss, divorce, family mediation, remarried families and Gottman's research-based approach. In the small group context, students have an opportunity to undertake "family of origin and self as therapist" reflective work, skills development through role play practice and theory/practice integration through case discussions.
