Routledge Emotional Safety: Viewing Couples Through Affect

Improve your clinical practice with Emotional Safety: Viewing Couples Through the Lens of Affect. Published by Routledge, this professional resource helps couple therapists identify and conceptualize client problems by focusing on the two central elements of emotion and attachment. Relationship issues often arise when partners no longer feel safe being open or vulnerable with one another. This book enables therapists to recognize and articulate the emotional subtext within client interactions. By applying the emotional safety model, which is based on modern affect theory, practitioners can better understand the affective tone of messages within a relationship. This guide provides the tools needed to help clients rebuild connection and navigate the complexities of emotional vulnerability in a clinical setting.
