Conversations – Webinar Series
Access guidance on parenting, the transition to parenthood, and navigating emotional development during challenging times.
Live Webinars
All Live Webinars are recorded, and registrants will have access to the recording afterwards.
Couples will explore how their upbringing influences their parenting perspectives and learn how to navigate these differences in a way that strengthens, rather than strains, their relationship. You will gain practical tools to communicate more effectively, reduce criticism and defensiveness, and work together as a parenting team.Â
How do we help couples clarify their own definition of commitment? How do we differentiate between consensual exploration and attachment injury? This webinar will explore how couples construct and negotiate commitment — whether monogamous or consensually non-monogamous — and how therapists can guide that process with clarity and neutrality.
Learn why you keep having the same argument over and over again by identifying the patterns that drive recurring conflict. Understand your unique conflict cycle and uncover the deeper emotions and unmet needs beneath the surface issue.  Couples will gain practical tools to interrupt these patterns and shift their interactions in real time moving out of reactive cycles and toward more constructive, connected conversations.
