Abstract
Marital therapy is illustrated for an older couple with long-standing marital conflict, which was exacerbated by recent life changes after retirement. Because of the history of conflict, current problems were resistant to directive forms of therapy. Paradoxical interventions were used to deal with this resistance and to help the couple reestablish a functional relationship. Several explanations of how paradox works are offered, and recommendations are made for the use of paradoxical therapy with older adults.
