Couples today are faced with increasing responsibilities, stresses, and time pressures. As a result, couples are stretched to the breaking point and often stop prioritizing their relationship. This workshop looks at the importance of relationship habits as the vehicle for creating a template of connection and intimacy. The presenters will describe a daily pattern of simple tools that will help couples invigorate their relationship with positive, loving energy.



This web conference is intermediate instructional level and designed to help clinicians:




  1. Describe the neuorobiological basis for habits;

  2. Assess the long-term ramifications of bad relationship habits;

  3. Outline three new ways for couples to cope with conflict;

  4. List three new habits that can help couples connect daily.

Event Reviews from Members

I thought that this workshop was particularly well-done. I agree with Noah that the presenters modeled their approach in their presentation. I think that it really flowed in sequence...understanding how the brain functions and how habits are formed is a useful approach to promoting change. - Allene Kaplan, MA, LMFT
