- This workshop examines the dynamics of love addiction and avoidance, linking them to early experiences of abandonment and enmeshment. It challenges cultural norms around gender, highlighting the common pairing of love-dependent women and love-avoidant men shaped by patriarchy. The speaker emphasizes healthy self-esteem, emotional boundaries, and the need for mature relational development. Practical tools like feelings journals support the shift toward vulnerability, intimacy, and emotionally grounded masculinity.

- Short Description:
- Avoidant attachment can resemble disorders of the self, such as narcissistic or schizoid presentations, where partners rely heavily on auto-regulation and disengage from mutual emotional attunement. This workshop examines how such dynamics play out in romantic relationships, offering practical strategies—like proximity-based interventions and structured dyadic exercises—to support co-regulation and foster secure relating.

- Short Description:
- When One or Both Partners are Highly Cognitive or Emotionally Avoidant. Accessing and deepening vulnerable emotions that are at first hidden, unspoken, unknown or masked by reactive and protective emotions is one of the most powerful skills of an emotionally focused couples therapist. Emotionally focused therapists facilitate emotionally moving enactments by guiding avoidant partners to turn to their partner and to share with them about their pain, sadness and fears.
