Relationship Foundations         

Workshop                                    what if? why not? what next?

Your relationship deserves respect!

Send a message - most importantly to each other - that your relationship is worthy of focus, recognition, support, preparation, and maintenance.

Deepen your understanding of each other, talk about and define your commitment, and grow together in our Relationship Foundations workshop.

All in a day's work: a brief outline.

Connect to Communicate, then Communicate to Connect!

It's not just the words that count!  Develop a strategy for teamwork and emotional connection that will protect your relationship during times of trouble.

Everyone Fights: Conflict Regulation

While it’s not possible to eliminate conflict, it is possible to learn how to navigate it more effectively. We’ll show you practical strategies for handling conflict in a way that supports your relationship instead of eroding it.

Getting Out of Gridlock & Deepening Intimacy

Getting clear about the past - the “old baggage” -allows you to be more present in your current relationship. Explore how your emotional history can lead you to feeling stuck in a repeated cycle of conflict.

Unspoken dreams may also keep you mired in conflict. We’ll show you tools to help break out of those gridlocked patterns - strategies that can turn your differences into direction.

 


What you get:

  • implement or improve relationship- sustaining communication
  • navigate conflict
  • cover strategies for managing emotional distress
  • learn to reduce risk factors for separation and increase factors for relationship longevity
  • explore how your personal histories influence the way you experience and interact with each other
  • uncover and share with each other your dreams about the future & what brings meaning to the relationship
