They learn to recognize the kinds of unrealistic expectations they place on their partners without realizing it, and those patterns in their parents' marriages that they unknowingly internalized as their only acceptable relationship mode. And they are provided with the tools they need to break free from such expectations and patterns to achieve the mature, nourishing and enduring love they seek. The format includes lectures, guided imagery, written exercises, and role plays in groups of two or three. A systematic workbook is provided for participant's use during and after the workshop. While participants will be invited to participate and build a supportive group atmosphere, they will not be pressured into unwelcome self-disclosure.
Confidentiality is maintained in a safe and comfortable environment.
