“This workshop, presented in a likely, often humorous way, brings ego state theory to life for those who work with couples. Barry’s is one of a handful of essential voices out there for describing the power and importance of EMDR and ego state therapy.” Carol Forgash, LCSW
The Marriage of EMDR and Ego State Theory in Couples TherapyPresented by: Barry Litt, MFT
November 18-19, 2016 | Phoenix, AZ This workshop will focus on the treatment of challenging couples who often present with poor interpersonal boundaries, mutual and sometimes hostile dependency, and reliance on blame and projection. Ego state conflict is common in one or both partners. Such conflict can dominate relational patterns even in clients without a trauma history. By augmenting EMDR with the explanatory power and clinical inventiveness of ego state theory, couples therapy can be brought to new levels of efficacy.
