Getting the Love You Want
A Weekend Workshop for Couples
(or singles may attend with a close friend)
Our next workshops are:
December 6-7, 2008.
January 10-11, 2009.
February 21-22, 2009.
Location
12 Crow Canyon Court, Suite 210, San Ramon, CA 94583
Times
Saturday and Sunday 8:00am to 5:00pm
Space is limited so register early!
The Goals of the Workshop are:
- To provide you with the opportunity to spend a distraction
free weekend focused on your relationship.
- To validate your conflicts, power struggles and frustrations
as predictable and even necessary aspects of a committed
partnership.
- To present, demonstrate and practice essential relational
tools that will help resolve conflicts and move you to a
higher level of functioning as a couple.
- To clearly show the steps necessary to increase safety
and reduce reactivity.
- To help you learn your partner's love language.
- To send you home with a jointly created vision of what
your ideal relationship will look like and knowledge of
the tools necessary to take you on the journey to a safe
and passionate marriage or partnership.
The Workshop is appropriate for you if:
- You want to enrich/deepen a good relationship.
- It's early in your relationship and you would like to
establish solid foundations and healthy communications patterns.
- Your long term relationship is lacking energy, passion
and a sense of connection.
- Your relationship is near death and you want to see if
it can be saved.
The basis for this workshop rises out of the Imago Theory
developed by Drs. Harville Hendrix and Helen Hunt. It is comparable
to 3 to 6 months of weekly therapy sessions in cognitive and
experiential learning. It has been utilized by thousands of
couples in twenty countries and is now available on 5 continents.
It is not a quick fix. It is a realistic understanding of
the path to a safe and passionate marriage or partnership, a roadmap of the
journey, and the tools needed to get you there.
The workshop will provide the safety needed to fully focus
on your partner, yourself and your relationship. By exploring
childhood experience and romantic attraction you'll begin
to understand the nature of your struggles in a very different
way. You'll spend time alone and together reflecting and writing
the details of your conscious and even unconscious needs in
the relationship and then you'll share that information in
a way that amplifies understanding and empathy.
The workshop format includes:
- Lectures, supported visually with the latest in presentation
graphics, about the purpose and dynamics of your relationship.
- Individual reflection and recording using the "Getting
the Love You Want" Couples' Manual.
- Demonstrations of communication skills.
- Practicing new behaviors and skills with your partner.
While this workshop is conducted in a group environment
you are not required to participate in personal group interaction.
This is not group therapy. You
share only with your partner in a safe, comfortable and
confidential manner.
Cost:
The workshop fee is $695 per couple. The cost includes manuals, tuition
and refreshments. Former Workshop Participants may review
the workshop for $400.
