About this webinar

Enduring Relational Themes (ERT) are the emotionally charged hopes and fears that subtly yet powerfully shape how we engage with others—including how clients engage with their therapists. These relational patterns often form early in life and become part of the background that influences personality development, life choices, ambitions, and the quality of our relationships.

In therapy, ERTs come to the foreground through the client’s experience of the therapeutic relationship itself. Recognizing and engaging with these themes as they emerge in session can be transformative. They reveal how the client anticipates connection and vulnerability, and how they respond to presence, attunement, or distance in relational contact.

In this webinar, Dr. Lynne Jacobs will offer a detailed exploration of Enduring Relational Themes and their clinical relevance. Participants will gain practical insights into how to identify and work with these themes as they arise in the therapy process. The webinar will also include an opportunity for self-reflection, encouraging therapists to consider their own ERTs and how these may enter the therapeutic dialogue.
