Description
Description: This keynote introduces principles of Relational Life Therapy (RLT), focusing on relationality as a human birthright and the potential for character change. Core strategies include addressing shame and grandiosity, using boundaries and self-esteem as diagnostic tools, and emphasizing practical relational skills. A case example illustrates how personal insight and accountability can lead to transformation. The goal: help individuals build meaningful connections beyond the therapy room.
Syllabus Description: Relational Life Therapy™ uses the current relationship of a couple as the laboratory in which individuals can learn and master the art of "relational practice," and to deal squarely with issues of character. Special attention will be paid to the use of the Relational Grid™, a powerful tool that gets to the heart of where the couple is and where they must go to improve the relationship. RLT produces profound, dramatic change quickly. Come and see how it's done.
Educational Objectives:
- To describe how to help clients become “unstuck” in their traditional battles.
- To describe how to help clients use the Relationship Grid™.
