This introduction reviews the enduring popular interest in this phenomenon and summarizes the contributions of the articles in this issue of\n                    <jats:italic>JCLP: In Session<\/jats:italic>\n                    , all of which focus on working clinically with individuals struggling with the breakup of a romantic relationship. Within this issue, Jackson's case study features the insights of a straight female psychologist working with a gay female patient through the aftermath of a breakup, noting both the universal aspects of the dissolution of romantic relationships as well as culturally specific dynamics that shape the breakup experiences of non\u2010heterosexual individuals. Lierle and Farber present a case study illustrating how contemporary psychodynamic psychotherapy helped a young woman deal with the enduring pain of the dissolution of her first (and intense) loving relationship. Leahy's case study, of a man beset with feelings of jealousy and the fear of losing love, demonstrates the value of an integrative, primarily third\u2010wave CBT approach, to these problems. Iwakabe offers a non\u2010western clinical take on the plight of the \u201cother woman\u201d at the end of her relationship with a married man. Blake and Rose report on their experience in a psychodynamic interpersonal process group with college\u2010age students who initiated a breakup. Finally, Ziv\u2010Bieman describes an integrative psychological approach to treating the multiple painful aspects of a romantic breakup, including those related to loss, despair, and challenges in imagining a positive future. These articles demonstrate the ways that psychotherapy, across multiple forms and cultural contexts, can facilitate the healing of romantic wounds.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jclp.70118","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,21]],"date-time":"2026-02-21T09:13:43Z","timestamp":1771665223000},"page":"823-826","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Clinical Perspectives on the Nature and Treatment of Romantic Breakups"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"82","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9294-0264","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Barry A.","family":"Farber","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Counseling &amp; Clinical Psychology, Teachers College Columbia University New York New York USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Roe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Mental Health Faculty of Social Welfare &amp; Health Sciences, University of Haifa Haifa Israel"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_2_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/09515070.2025.2517011"},{"key":"e_1_2_2_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/pst0000531"},{"key":"e_1_2_2_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.19070\/2332-3000-1700038"},{"key":"e_1_2_2_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15406\/jpcpy.2025.16.00808"},{"key":"e_1_2_2_6_1","unstructured":"Gunther C.2025. \u201cModern Love: My Struggle to Stop Loving Him.\u201d The New York Times 6."},{"key":"e_1_2_2_7_1","volume-title":"What's Left After a Romantic Breakup: The Vicissitudes of Closure","author":"Roe D.","year":"2026"}],"container-title":["Journal of Clinical Psychology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/jclp.70118","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1002\/jclp.70118","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/jclp.70118","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T16:41:38Z","timestamp":1777480898000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/jclp.70118"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,21]]},"references-count":6,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/jclp.70118"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/jclp.70118","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0021-9762","1097-4679"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0021-9762","type":"print"},{"value":"1097-4679","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,21]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2026-01-18","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-02-12","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-02-21","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
