Liz Neal & Braedy Neal from The Relationship Therapy Centre are pleased to announce we are coming to you in Parramatta, Melbourne CBD and Crows Nest to deliver this training. We hope to see you there to meet and network and talk all things couples therapy!
This is the first step in learning Gottman Method Couples Therapy. A truly inspiring workshop, Level 1 Training will give you new insights into treatment for couples who struggle, using research-based assessments and effective interventions.
Workshop description
When couples enter the therapy office, they sting with pain and despair. They look to the clinician to referee chronic conflicts, fix their partners, and rebuild burned bridges. Now, based on Dr. John Gottman’s 40 years of compelling research with over 3,000 couples, there’s a practical and highly effective approach to guiding couples across the chasm that divides them. In this workshop, you will be provided with a research-based roadmap for helping couples compassionately manage their conflicts, deepen their friendship and intimacy, and share their life purpose and dreams.
Apply the Gottman Method Couples Therapy to help couples strengthen:
- The Friendship System –the foundation for intimacy, passion, and good sex
- The Conflict System –the basis for helping couples identify and address solvable problems, and understand and manage irresolvable differences
- The Shared Meaning System –the existential foundation of the relationship that helps partners discover their shared purpose for building a life together
As a result of this training, you will learn:
- Research-based strategies and tools to help couples successfully manage conflict
- Skills to empower partners to dialogue about their worst gridlocked issues by uncovering their underlying dreams, history, and values
