Couple Relations
Book • 2025
In Couple Relations: A Contemporary Introduction, Mary Morgan offers an accessible survey of intimate couple dynamics, integrating psychoanalytic theory with clinical practice and contemporary issues.
The book covers core topics such as attachment, projective processes, transference in couples, sexuality, and developmental and defensive functions of couple systems.
Morgan uses clinical vignettes to illustrate concepts and provides practical guidance for assessment and intervention in couple psychotherapy.
Intended as a teaching and reference text, it seeks to broaden clinicians' understanding of how couple relationships shape individuals' emotional lives and societal contexts.
The volume complements her earlier work by offering a concise, up-to-date introduction for trainees and practitioners.
