SEMINAR TRAINING FOR CONTRACEPTIVE CARE – COMFORT WITH SEXUAL MATTERS (DIFFICULT BOUNDARIES)
During discussion the group noticed how the flirtatiousness of the patient had appeared suddenly at the time that she was talking about her abuse. With the knowledge that abused people often find the maintenance of boundaries difficult, it was possible to understand that she might have difficulties maintaining the boundaries of a professional relationship with her doctor. Thanks to his training the doctor was able to stay with the difficult moment, not run away or attack, and provide an experience for the patient of a man in authority who could tolerate her flirtatiousness without responding to it.
