Perhaps you're looking for a marriage workshop because you and your spouse of 20 years just cannot stop fighting about your teenager’s misbehavior. Or maybe you're newly engaged, and you want to avoid the communication issues that you've seen destroy too many relationships in your life.

Consider attending one of the following highly successful relationship workshops. Many of these borrow from a kind of therapy known as Imago Therapy, which is based on the insights and clinical experience of Dr. Harville Hendrix.

"Getting The Love You Want" - A Couples Workshop

This couples and marriage workshop is also based on the pioneering work of Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. Over the course of the workshop, married and unmarried couples will rediscover the joy and spiritual potential of being together.

They will learn to be able to use their relationship for personal change and growth. You will learn how to cultivate compassion for your partner, break destructive cycles, surface and alter old negative patterns, and restore empathy and stability in your relationship.

You will also identify the unconscious patterns that drew you to your partner in the first place – and that could be creating impasses in your communication. In addition, you will learn tools for re-romanticizing your relationship and re-establishing the passion of your early time together.

What past participants have said about the couples and marriage workshop:

“This was easily the most helpful workshop I have experienced that deals with marriage relationships”

“This workshop had the single most profound impact on me and the way I relate in relationships more than any other therapy I have ever received or read about”

“Great tools and understandings to make me more effective in my life priorities and significant relationships”

“Your marriage workshop teachings caused my husband and I to stop and really appreciate each other for the first time in our 25 year marriage. We will no longer take each other for granted”

Fee: $750 per couple ($375 payable at registration, balance due 3 weeks prior to workshop.)

Maintaining and Enhancing Emotional and Physical Intimacy
