Description
World-renowned couple’s therapist, Terry Real, worked live and intensively for two days with a group of five couples who are at the brink of giving up. Follow along with Terry in this recording as he gets down to the most intimate issues. His work with the couples is deep, highly emotional, incisive, and often life-changing.
Using techniques drawn from the approach he created, Relational Life Therapy (RLT), each couple is led, with extraordinary quickness and precision, to their ‘next step‘ toward unlocking their fullest potential. RLT leverages the concept of “relational living” to help people address relational and psychological health in relationships.
This model has helped thousands of therapists get faster and more effective results for their clients.
It can be quite detrimental to let therapy drag on. RLT allows you to go deep, understand quickly the negative patterns in the relationship, and help clients make quick and substantive changes.
Are you ready to take your couples therapy to an entirely new level?
How it Works:
Each couple will introduce themselves, name their issues and identify their goals or wishes for the two-day treatment. Terry will work with each couple, talking through their issues, articulating where the couple is stuck and where this relationship road block comes from.
Watch and learn how Terry performs initial data gathering leading to a rich, precise, and relational diagnosis and gains leverage by empowering a disempowered partner. Terry will demonstrate powerful, life-changing strategies to help the couple move forward, delve into deep trauma work, and actively teach new relational skills.
Toward the end of each day of the recording, the couples are excused and you will be able to watch an in-depth debrief with Terry from what you just witnessed, and hear audience questions, observations, and feelings.
