Coping with the COVID-19 pandemic has revealed different ways individuals react to frustrations they have experienced. Many times we have witnessed an increased level of aggression in interpersonal relationships and in the general social context. We find that there are some differences in coping and responding according to gender, with men showing a higher level of vulnerability and risk of inappropriate...

The Person and the Challenges. The Journal of Theology, Education, Canon... > 2020 > 10 > 1 > 177-191

The family is supposed to give the child a sense of security, belonging, acceptance and love.1 If, however, instead of these pleasant experiences, the most prevalent atmosphere is that of, abuse, trauma, violence, horror and fear, the child will not feel safe, accepted and loved. Even worse, later in life, he will unconsciously search for situations that will awaken in him, and re-create that primary...

Violence regulation and dysregulation system

Tanja Valenta, Christian Gostečnik, Tanja Pate, Tanja Repič Slavič

Family Forum > 2019 > 9 > 15-31

Very early in childhood, relational trauma can lead to affect dysregulation in two directions: while intense fear determines the dysregulation of the brain system responsible for flight, uncontrolled aggression means the dysregulation of the brain centre responsible for fight. Both systems send the message of dysregulation in the autonomic nervous system. In both cases, there is a dysregulation of...

Family Forum > 2019 > 9 > 53-70

Sexuality is most natural and healthy when it is part of an emotionally genuine relationship, not even as its central part but rather as an upgrade of the intimacy of two people who are mutually loyal, committed, loving and respectful. However, if an individual was sexually abused in childhood, they may have suffered the severest consequences of sexual abuse trauma in the area of sexuality, and their...

The Person and the Challenges. The Journal of Theology, Education, Canon... > 2019 > 9 > 2 > 169-191

Children who are victims of an early violent atmosphere or early relational trauma will often, even in adulthood, tend to behave violently towards others, or become victims of violence, or freeze and later develop the tendency towards self-injury, in particular in later adolescence. In adulthood, they can be accident-prone, engage in constant violent physical abuse, threaten with or actually commit...

Traumatic experiences are very important for the psycho-organic regulation of an individual. These experiences can very profoundly mark an individual, especially if they happened in childhood. They can be very disruptive and they scream for healing. In this process of healing spirituality plays a crucial role. Religiousness and sacramental life can be an essential regulatory system in the establishment...

Repetition Compulsion Revisited in Relational Family Therapy: The Discovery of Old in Order to Develop Something New

Christian Gostečnik, Tanja Repič Slavič, Tanja Pate, Robert Cvetek

Journal of Religion and Health > 2019 > 58 > 2 > 612-627

Psychoanalysis has always been full of diversity and controversy, in the theoretical field and especially in the plasticity and variety of its modalities and approaches. Yet all these theories are based on the premise that individuals compulsively repeat their old psycho-organic content, both in their personal lives and in analysis; the premise of Relational Family Therapy is that old emotional, behavioral...

Body Language in Relational Family Therapy

Christian Gostečnik, Tanja Repič Slavič, Tanja Pate, Robert Cvetek

Journal of Religion and Health > 2018 > 57 > 4 > 1538-1553

The mechanism of projective and introjective identification has been re-evaluated in modern analysis. It is no longer just about the transference of mental content to an other, rather it addresses also the deepest psycho-organic sensations and vibrations, which in turn become the basis for interpersonal and family dialogues. The goal of this article is also to lay out the fundamental dynamics of body...

Relational Family Therapy as an Aid Toward Resolving the Trauma of Sexual Abuse in Childhood in the Process of Separation in the Couple Relationship

Tanja Repič Slavič, Christian Gostečnik

Journal of Marital and Family Therapy > 43 > 3 > 422 - 434

Relational family therapy (RFT) is a psycho‐organic therapeutic approach that combines intrapsychic dynamics with interpersonal mechanisms and a systemic perspective. This integrative model is based on the assumption that the repetitive patterns of relationships in early childhood repeat in adulthood. It often happens that a sexually abused individual will later unconsciously be attracted to someone...

Transformational Analysis and Religious Experience

Christian Gostečnik, Tanja Repič Slavič, Tanja Pate, Robert Cvetek

Journal of Religion and Health > 2017 > 56 > 5 > 1812-1825

The therapeutic process, which taps into the individual’s most vulnerable inner experience, can always reach a radical reversal of one’s perception of religion and God, which may be askew due to deep trauma. This transformation caused by the therapeutic relationship can reciprocally help to resolve one’s deep and complicated issues, while at the same time radically altering their relationship to religion...

Emotional Detachment of Partners and the Sanctity of the Relationship with the Analyst as the Most Powerful Curative Factor

Christian Gostečnik, Tanja Repič Slavič, Saša Poljak Lukek, Tanja Pate, more

Journal of Religion and Health > 2017 > 56 > 4 > 1123-1136

The relationship between partners and the analyst is considered the most basic means for healing in contemporary psychoanalytic theories and analyses. It also holds as one of the most fundamental phenomenon’s of psychoanalysis, so it comes as no surprise that it has always been deliberated over as an object of great interest as well as immense controversy. This same relationship, mutually co-created...

Sanctity of the Body and the Relational Paradigm

Christian Gostečnik, Tanja Repič Slavič, Tanja Pate, Robert Cvetek

Journal of Religion and Health > 2015 > 54 > 6 > 2073-2085

The individual is in constant interaction with others from birth onwards. The primary experience evolves from the innate need for bodily touch and connection, which form the foundation for the psychobiological structure of the individual. The body’s anatomy is made to yearn for another, for building a home with the body of another. This makes the body the focal instrument, which is discernible already...

Trauma and Religiousness

Christian Gostečnik, Tanja Repič Slavič, Saša Poljak Lukek, Robert Cvetek

Journal of Religion and Health > 2014 > 53 > 3 > 690-701

Victims of traumatic events who experience re-traumatization often develop a highly ambivalent relationship to God and all religiosity as extremely conflictual. On the one hand, they may choose to blame God for not having protected them, for having left them to feel so alone, for having been indifferent to them or they may even turn their wrath upon God, as the source of cruelty. Often though, the...
