- Short Description:
- Many couples therapists treat individuals with troubled marriages when the spouse will not participate in couples therapy. Often the therapy has started out as individual work and then serious relationship complaints surface. But we lack explicit models for helping these individuals, and it’s all too easy to start colluding with the client against the partner who’s absent from the room—a stance that’s counterproductive to improving the relationship and helping the client learn from its difficulties. The challenge is to maintain a systemic, relational perspective even when we are seeing only one partner. This workshop will provide specific tools and guidelines for helping individual clients in the context of their relationship.

- Short Description:
- In couples therapy, it’s not uncommon for therapists to find that one partner may need to explore their personal issues separately to facilitate healing within the relationship. Referrals for individual work can sometimes feel complicated, but when used strategically, they can be a powerful tool for enhancing the couple’s therapy journey. This workshop dives into the art of working with a partner individually while maintaining a focus on their relationship dynamics. We’ll explore the attachment framework to help clients understand their attachment styles, reduce defenses, and build empathy for their partner’s needs. Together, we’ll discuss why and when individual therapy is appropriate, how to ensure it aligns with couples therapy, and how to handle the potential challenges and ethical considerations that come with individual sessions.

- Hypnosis is often viewed as a mysterious, external practice, but it is, in fact, deeply woven into the fabric of psychotherapy—particularly in couples therapy. Trance states, which allow individuals to shift perspective, process emotions, and experience deep healing, are integral to many therapeutic approaches, from psychoanalysis to family systems. Whether consciously recognized or not, couples therapists are already utilizing hypnotic tools in their work. This keynote will illuminate how hypnosis plays a vital role in enhancing couples therapy, deepening emotional understanding, and breaking through stuck relational patterns. By becoming more attuned to the hypnotic elements present in therapeutic work, therapists can sharpen their skills and provide even more profound and impactful treatment for their clients.

- Politically mixed couples face special challenges during a time of political polarization, and even couples who vote similarly may have conflict over how strongly they feel about the current political environment and how to deal with extended family differences over politics. This is new territory for couples therapists, complicated by the fact that many of us have strong political convictions. This presentation will cover sources of today’s polarization, special assessment issue for couples in conflict over politics, and tools for helping them buffer their relationships against these political stressors and engage in constructive coping. The presenter will also discuss how he has adapted couple therapy principles in designing workshops that bring “reds” and “blues” together through the national nonprofit Braver Angels.

- In this cutting edge training we will discuss the varieties of affairs and the many ways that relationships can heal from the betrayal that affects intimacy. We will review the stages of recovery that lead to long term healing. Issues around trust, forgiveness, new visions of monogamy, sexuality and connection for the future of the couple’s relationship will be addressed. We will review three phases of treatment and the steps of the recovery process. It is crucial to understand the triangulation that can occur when therapists do not explore their own bias and countertransference and we will look at how to avoid unintentional shaming and client retaliation. We will look at the power of the third in the relationship, including the therapeutic as well as the romantic.

- Short Description:
- Leading men, women and non-binary people into true intimacy is synonymous with leading them beyond patriarchy. Traditional gender roles were never built for intimacy, but for stability. For example, the traditional term masculinity MEANS invulnerability—the more invulnerable you are the more manly you are and visa versa. Yet, you cannot be intimate and invulnerable at the same time. Leading men into intimacy means nothing less than reconfiguring who they are as men. Traditionally women and partners of men are socialized to over accommodate and resent. More modern women and partners have been taught to speak up with individual empowerment, but rarely with ‘relational empowerment.’ RLT (Relational Life Therapy) teaches people to stand up for themselves and love and cherish their partner in the same breath. “Loving power” also goes beyond the morays of patriarchy, we therapists are intimacy merchants. Our work is at once therapeutic and social activism.

- It’s said that the truth shall set you free, so why do romantic partners lie to each other? Or to their therapist? And how important are the facts anyway in couples therapy? Actual or perceived dishonesty can wreak havoc on a relationship and can stall therapeutic progress. Most couples therapists don’t want to get bogged down on fact checking, but sometimes the details do matter–perhaps to the other partner, perhaps as revealing about the individual speaking, and perhaps as revealing about the couple’s dynamic.

- Short Description:
- RLT (Relational Life Therapy) has three phases. One is waking up the clients (joining through the truth). Two is doing deep trauma work in the presence of the partner. And, three is relationship skill building. It is a combination of all three of these phases together that produces the quick profound transformational change RLT is known for. This workshop will give therapists a new map to give to their clients—how to think relationally along with the beginnings of a new tool set for example ‘how to speak up for yourself with love’, how to handle a disgruntled partner, and others. I’ll share with you a new vision of how to live relationally and nuts and bolts concrete practices to achieve it.
