This relational conceptualization of the problem informs how the therapist will help clients shift their focus of the problem and direct the client’s attention through the therapist’s preferred therapy model to address current problems ( Sprenkle & Blow, 2004a 2004b Davis & Piercy 2007a 2007b).

This process of reflecting about the early parts of the relationship can also be described as relationship nostalgia. A number of specific methods for conducting a relationship history have been written about extensively (e.g., DeMaria, Weeks, & Hof, 1999 Gottman, 1999, Jacobson & Christensen, 1996), but the primary purpose of this practice is to gather information to develop an effective treatment approach. ![]() All rights reserved.For marital and couple therapists, taking a history of the relationship and asking couples to reminisce about the early parts of their relationship are standard practices addressed in most books about couple’s therapy. ![]() Due care has been taken to make this event safe & secure.
