Contextualisme et langage d'acceptation en thérapie comportementale intégrative de couple

We present the Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy which is a contextual model developed by Jacobson and Christensen (1996) and validated in 2004, addressing couples in distress. It promotes emotional acceptance of the other and his/her differences and a mutual modification of blaming verbal behaviours. The strategies and basic principles of this model are applicable to various therapeutic situations.
