Love Addiction in Couples Therapy - Paperback
About this item
by Toby Morrill (Author)
elve into the complex realm of addiction as this study explores the underutilized attachment framework within couples therapy, specifically through the lens of Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). Addiction, a pervasive mental health issue with profound implications for relationships, has often been approached through short-term, symptom-focused treatments. However, high rates of relapse and the emergence of cross-addictions indicate a need for a more comprehensive understanding and treatment.
The study draws on the experiences of ISTDP couples therapists who view addiction as a defense rooted in insecure attachment bonds. While the popular medical model tends to prioritize individual treatment and short-term symptom management, this research investigates the potential of fostering secure attachments in couples therapy to address the root causes of addiction.
