Why does a person need a partner? Why do we strive to find “the one” love—which we often equate with happiness? And why do strong feelings so often turn into strong pain? These questions are answered by well-known Spanish gestalt therapist Joан Garriga, who offers an in-depth and detailed “map” of love relationships. She doesn’t claim to be a universal recipe, nor does she tell you how to love and live correctly. On the contrary, with her help you can outline your own path: by exploring different formats of closeness, you can understand what is valuable to you in another person and what life scenario brings happiness specifically to you.
This therapy book will help you and your partner move closer to love without conditions—love that:
– looks at the present and the future instead of holding on to the past;
– gives both partners the right to be themselves;
– supports growth and reveals potential;
– makes life easier, rather than turning it into constant tension.
At the core of Garriga’s approach are her original developments and Bert Hellinger’s family constellations method, which helps identify and work through deep inner conflicts, free yourself from unconscious limiting beliefs, and return your authentic desires to life.
