Couples Skills Workshop: Gottman Approach and Exercises
February Workshop Theme: Reduce Stress, Turn Towards Each Other!
Did you survive or thrive through the holidays?
Would you like to see your stress levels go down?
Did you know, that as a couple, research shows when you support each other, you can REDUCE your stress together!
It's a New Year and not too late to start a NEW habit this year to reduce stress together!
As a couple, the demands on the relationship can be challenging for so many reasons, especially, if you feel disconnected or are not making time to check in regularly with each other.
Join us to learn easy and quick exercises, proven to help you stay connected, reducing that feeling of stress together!
We will teach you how! With small everday changes, you can thrive, together!
Learn skills to sustain connection and relationship satisfaction!
You and your partner will engage in three activites together, from the privacy of your couch. These activites will support your connection with each other well beyond Valentine's Day.
How does it work? Couples will be taught exercises by the presenters, then turn off cameras and mics to try it as a couple, then come back online, to move on to the next exercise to be taught. It's education and fun!
We do not discuss your couple experience, but couples do find it extremely supportive to have Maryellen and Thea teach skills and provide information in a group format.
Have questions? Contact us!
This workshop is dyadic, meaning you and your partner talk WITH each other only! (Remember, you may keep your video/audio turned off for anonymity after coming onto zoom, if needed! If you feel comfortable, you may also keep your video on and ask questions. We do ask your first names be in the zoom room, and where you are zooming from, to provide a private community feel.)
Cost
This 1 hour and 15 minute workshop is $35.
