“…Clearly these situations contain the possibility of vicious circles. Anyone who has been exposed to endlessly demanding clients, anxious and demanding children or frail relatives must be aware of the anger that can be aroused in certain circumstances (see Goldner et al, 1990). The sequential patterns of attachment and rejecting responses are probably very important.…”

Therapists' ratings on a sample of heterosexual couples receiving marital or partnership counselling were used to develop measures of 'invasive' behaviour by the adults concerned. We suggest that this behaviour stems from difficulties in attachment and is marked by a desire to stay close to the other person, difficulties in communication, difficulties in handling relationships between three people, and problems associated with the birth of a baby. A particular feature of this behaviour is that one or other partner attempts to restrict communication from the other, perhaps in order to avoid surprises which are perceived as a threat to the relationship. Invasiveness by wives was high in those couples who had had problems after the birth of a baby and significantly lower in those who had not. Implications for practice are discussed.

“…Often our work with a couple is part of a safety plan that includes other interventions. We agree no-violence contracts (Carpenter and Treacher, 1989;Goldner et al, 1990) with the perpetrators of violence. Once the noviolence contract has been established and seems to be holding, as reported by all concerned parties at our regular review meetings, we extend it to include other forms of psychological abuse, such as coercive and intimidatory behaviours.…”

In this article we describe a project which aims to ensure prevention and continued protection from violence for family members. We outline our theoretical approach to assessment and working with violence in family relationships and the associated ethical problems. We identify three recurrent themes: risk, collaboration, and responsibility. We focus on our work with couples, where the man is violent towards the woman. Within this discussion we identify other important clinical issues.

“…A crítica feminista, como preconizada pelo Akerman Violence Project (Goldner, Penn, Sheinberg & Walker, 1990), coloca que a construção de teorias circulares, como proposta pela perspectiva sistêmica, serve também como manutenção de uma descrição socialmente construída. A visão linear de causalidade, nos casos em que homens são os responsáveis únicos pela violência contra as mulheres, oferece outra perspectiva possível, moralmente comprometida com a proteção das vítimas.…”

RESUMO -O objetivo deste trabalho é rever as principais tendências e mudanças, metodológicas e conceituais, da psicoterapia de casal, indicando a origem das abordagens e as mudanças na compreensão do objeto, métodos e modelos psicoterapêuticos. O foco metodológico foi construído a partir das revisões publicadas sobre a psicoterapia de casal, indexadas ao "PsycLit" e acessadas por meio do sítio da CAPES em agosto de 2006. Diferentes abordagens metodológicas e teóricas da psicoterapia de casal são descritas e vinculadas a diferentes períodos históricos. São apontadas contribuições recentes a partir de perspectivas feministas, transculturais e pós-modernas. Tentativas de articulações entre abordagens são também indicadas.Palavras-chave: psicoterapia de casal; revisão histórica; metodologia; abordagens teóricas. Where do we come from? A Conceptual and Historical Review of Couple PsychotherapyABSTRACT -The purpose of the present paper is to review the main methodological and conceptual trends and changes of couple psychotherapy, indicating the approaches origin and changes in the understanding of the object, methodology, and psychotherapeutic models. The methodological focus was based on published couple psychotherapy review papers, presented in the PsycLit, and accessed trough CAPES home page in August, 2006. Diverse couple psychotherapy methodological and theoretical approaches are described and connected to several historical periods. Recent questions and contributions related to feminist, transcultural and post-modern perspectives are pointed out. Articulations among approaches are also indicated.Keywords: couple psychotherapy; historical review; methodology; theoretical approaches. O objetivo principal desta revisão é refletir sobre a construção do campo epistêmico da psicoterapia de casal. O campo da psicoterapia de casal desafia a possibilidade de uma revisão simples, pois muitas correntes, tendências e diferentes abordagens e perspectivas afloraram e conviveram em períodos históricos e em diferentes gerações de psicoterapeutas, simultaneamente. A evolução das abordagens, metodologias e teorias tampouco foi linear, o que impede uma descrição simples da história do campo. Tal fato se reflete, por exemplo, na escolha do uso dos termos "terapia de casal" e "psicoterapia de casal" pelos autores revisados. Embora o termo "psicoterapia de casal" pareça mais adequado, pela ênfase psicológica do tratamento, foi respeitada a escolha do uso de um ou outro termo pelos autores citados ao longo do texto. Portanto, realizar uma revisão teórica, ainda que sumária, parece útil, pois torna possível não só discernir os impasses teórico-metodológicos, mas também apontar direções possíveis de desenvolvimentos, indicando as principais e mais robustas descobertas do campo. Assim, ao traçar uma revisão conceitual sobre a terapia de casal serão abordados os seguintes aspectos: a orientação teórica dominante ou significativamente emergente em um período, o método adotado e os autores significativos segundo as avaliações dos autores da...
