Developing Intimacy in Couples: What's a Therapist to Do?

This course will outline some essential considerations for helping couples incrementally develop their capacity for intimacy as part of the therapeutic process. We will discuss various definitions of intimacy, and outline various levels of connectedness that a couple can work towards. In addition, we will discuss various suggestions for therapist intervention that can enable each individual in the couple, and the couple itself, to be comfortable with the deepening of intimacy. We shall also consider aspects of therapist comfort with emotional connectedness, which can affect the level of discussion during the therapy session.

Couples and Poly and Kink, Oh My! Dorothy, We’re Definitely Not In Kansas Anymore

This thought-provoking and interactive workshop provides a reminder that exposure to different relational models can function as a mirror or a prism, facilitating self-discovery and growth. It is for anyone who would like to expand their knowledge and deepen their learning about crucial aspects of love, the self, and relationships- no matter how they identify in terms of relationship orientation (polyamorous, monogamous, etc).
