Description

 

Description: This keynote invites therapists to become champions of last-chance couples. Blending clinical insight with personal conviction, it explores how therapist mindset shapes outcomes, especially when hope feels lost. Drawing on ideas like the “walk-away wife” and the power of emotional effort, it encourages relational optimism, everyday advocacy, and staying attuned to what helps partners reconnect.

Syllabus Description: This keynote explores the incredibly powerful ways we can restore hope in the flat-lined couples we encounter—both in and out of our offices. Be inspired with new, 11th hour strategies for helping challenging couples want to work things out.

Educational Objectives:

  1. List one technique for instilling hope in hopeless couples.
  2. List one reason about the importance of knowing your clinical blind spots.
