In The Secret Language of Intimacy, shame and its consequences are
foregrounded as a major, if not the major, impediment to the
healthy functioning in the relationships of couples. In the first
part of the book, Robert Lee presents the "Secret Language of
Intimacy Workshop," developed and presented for the first time at
the 1998 Annual Conference of the Association for the Advancement
of Gestalt Therapy. Lee not only describes how the hidden forces of
shame and belonging regulate couple dynamics, but also how the
workshop itself has facilitated the acceptance of these forces and
promoted therapeutic resolution, utilizing clinical vignettes. The
second half of the book is comprised of internationally contributed
essays from leading names in the Gestalt perspective, each adding
to and redefining the role of shame and belonging in the theory and
practice of Gestalt couples therapy. Their conclusions, however,
are just as insightful for purveyors of other psychoanalytic and
psychodynamic therapies as well.
