Sexual violence in couple & family relationships

A special online event in collaboration with couple and family psychoanalysis & TRAPC.

With Wayne Bodkin, Damian McCann, Anna Motz, Ariel Nathanson & Lorna Robinson (Chair).

Despite increasing concern about domestic abuse, sexual violence within couple and family relationships often remains hidden, is often unreported and is little understood. In this three-hour online event, we will explore the nature, extent, causes and treatment interventions relating to sexual violence with some of the leading practitioners and thinkers in the field.

Anna Motz will outline her ground-breaking work on the role of women as intimate partner terrorists, in conversation with Wayne Bodkin. Based on his experience in working with both perpetrators and victims, Ariel Nathanson will describe how domestic violence can impact the development of young boys, in conversation with Damian McCann. The afternoon will conclude with a panel bringing together these ideas and expanding the focus.

This event is offered in collaboration with Couple and Family Psychoanalysis, and is based on the Spring 2024 issue of the journal in which the papers originate, all participants will receive a 20% discount code to purchase the Spring 2024 issue. This event is run in association with Tavistock Relationships Association of Psychotherapists and Counsellors (TRAPC).
