Abstract

On while working with couples in distress, it´s fundamental for the therapist to be able to make them realize what happens to them for being undifferentiated and unconscious of their internal invisible partners. For unconsciousness, seeking to frame the partner on this projection, there are loyalties and triangulations which prevent the criation of a clear and unfused communication, a true partnership with the life partner. The use of combined techniques of Family Therapy and Analitycal Pshychology, by Carl G Jung, is na excellent resource for the therapeutic system to favor the projrct “us” (the couple) to become more fluid and better able to deal with the components in a mmetrical way, building a path ofindividuation and differenciacion for them.
