Una mirada terapéutica a los problemas de pareja recién constituida

Abstract

One of the challenges as a professional clinical psychologist is to keep informed about the changes, diversity and needs that come up in different social contexts. Although the couples in reconstitution process is not a new nor irrelevant topic in the current context, most of the circumstances and situations that arise when facing this process can be addressed at greater length. That is why this graduation paper is focused on the case study on a newly formed couple that present difficulties and ask for the psychology service addressed from an intervention research approach focused on narrative therapy and co-therapy strategy to enable the understanding and the reconfiguration of the sense and meaning built around being a couple, giving way to a family structure that ensure the well-being and integrity of its members. The design and methodological development correspond to a unique case study, developed in the IPS of the Universidad Santo Tomas, in a psychological process of ten sessions. The outcomes of the therapeutic process are gathered and described through out the sessions, standing out the patient’s changes at the personal, familiar and couple’s relationship levels, related to the different stances assumed by the therapist, allowing the construction of new stories and meanings.
