Description
Description: This workshop outlines the core phases of Relational Life Therapy (RLT): data gathering, confronting power imbalances, and teaching relational skills. It emphasizes the role of the adaptive child, relational mindfulness, and moving from complaint to request. Key topics include managing grandiosity and shame, fostering maturity, setting boundaries, practicing loving power, and cultivating relational joy. Strategies for addressing defensiveness, narcissism, and behavior change are also presented.
Syllabus Description: This workshop focuses on the critical third phase of RLT – teaching couples how to
actually do it. Four key areas will be introduced and illustrated:
Relational Mindfulness
- How to work with and ultimately master our own – and our partners’ reactivity
- The Three Steps to Getting More of What You Want
- The Art of Repair
- Am I Getting Enough? The Tool of “Relational Reckoning”
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the definition of ‘Relational Mindfulness’ – the core practice
- Equipping our clients to use their relationships as crucibles for their own transformation.
- How to give our clients a relational map and tool kit, a relational technology, that has the power to deliver on our new romantic ambitions.
