Learn the essential skills to improve communication, resolve conflict and build intimacy.
Discover the Real Work of Relationships...& Discover Relational Joy
We know that relationships take work, but few of us know what that work actually is…
The real work of relationships isn’t occasional, it’s minute-to-minute.
And this workshop will teach you those critical minute-to-minute skills that build and sustain true intimacy.
By the end of the two days, you’ll have the skills to:
Override your knee-jerk reactions in heated moments to navigate conflict calmly.
Break free from the losing strategies that block you from enjoying true intimacy.
Complain without blame and get more of what you want from your relationship.
Encourage, not discourage, your partner’s efforts, and celebrate progress.
Let go of the battle of who’s right and work together to find a solution.
Join Caron Starobin, LCSW-C for this transformative workshop based on the work of Terry Real, bestselling author of the book Us: Getting Past You and Me to Build a More Loving Relationship. Learn the powerful relational skills you need to create the deeply connected relationship you yearn for.
This workshop is friendly and supportive to neurodiverse individuals and couples.
The Relational Life model has helped thousands of couples and individuals break free from destructive patterns and create profound, lasting intimacy.
