While a great deal is known about the problems that clients bring to therapy, little is known about the way in which clients conceptualize problems during the course of couple therapy. Understanding clients’ conceptualizations of problems is important because it provides the therapist with a client-centered context on how to approach discussions about the problems during the course of treatment. This manuscript provides the results of an exploratory qualitative inquiry concerning how clients conceptualize problems during therapy and across the trajectory of treatment. The sample consisted of 26 individuals comprising 13 couples attending couple therapy. Participants completed a semi-structured interview prior to the first and after the second, third, and fourth therapy session. Analysis included grounded theory and discourse analysis. Results suggested that couples approach problems from an individualistic standpoint, they internalize problems, and they expect to recover from problems. The authors discuss how therapists may challenge dominant discourses around problems during couple therapy.

“UFOs and NASA: There is No Reliable Data, But We Still Want to Investigate Them” is my review of NASA’s Independent Study Team on UAPs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena), released September 14, 2023. For nine months, a panel of 16 appointed scientists was to create a roadmap for how to handle UAP research in the coming future. This study presented their findings. This paper presents my criticism and also my praise. V.J. Ballester Olmos ballesterolmos@yahoo.es
