Ambivalence within long-term unsatisfactory partner relationship and inspiration in adictology
- Psychosomatická klinika, Patočkova 3, Praha
The paper focuses on a model and a psychotherapeutic method for clients with a significant problem regarding long-term ambivalence
within their partner relationship. A model of a motivation to change one’s behaviour, frequently used in Adictology, is offered as a theoretical
framework for understanding this issue. After a method is presented – the method could be used, after particular modification, for
the assessment of ambivalence and for the improvement of cognitive outlooks at various aspects of ambivalence. At present, mentioned
model and method are only hypothesis based on a limited amount of therapeutic experiences. Therefore, a critique is needed as well as
further testing by means of a suitable methodology in practise.
