Summary/Abstract: This case study presents a psychotherapeutic intervention with a young married couple. The main complaints refer to communication difficulties, and the parents-in-law’s involvement in couple’s life. The systemic conceptualization reveals a borders’ pathology and individuals’ fight for power. The wife presents an ambivalence concerning the relation with her husband. In 13 months after the last session, the couple hadn’t had major communication’s difficulties; a meaningful change had been initiated in their life.
