Research shows that intimate partner violence is rather frequent; even more so in couples seeking couple therapy. However, the violence often remains hidden from the therapist. Or due to therapist fears and uncertainty about contraindication, couples seeking therapy are often refused.
In many couples, the underlying strong, heavy negative interaction patterns are paramount in the violence. These patterns form a challenge for many therapists in working with these couples, and often the violence between the partners is central to the therapeutic process. When there is identified violence it is remarkable that couples typically want to work in therapy toward a safer relationship where they can stay together and have the violence stop.
