In this article, the author describes the technique of redirection in couple therapy. Many therapists become too interested in the content of therapy, which may create problems with intervention. By learning to focus more on the process of therapy, a therapist can see another dimension of the clients’interaction and formulate powerful interventions. Because intimate partners are focused on the problems, or issues, that bring them to treatment, they are often unaware of how they are interacting with each other (their process). When the therapist redirects their attention to their process, this new awareness is often experienced as magical by the couple. Directives that will enhance intervention are provided, as is a brief case example.
