Is the Couple a Space for Being “Fixed”? - 2007.


17

Beyond intra-psychic aspects and the link between two partners, the author stresses the dimension of space in the couple, which acts as a framework in which are reactivated the primary traumatic traces. The atmosphere of confidence and the investment of this space confer a repairing potentiality which can help to put an end to the compulsive repetition of abandon.
