Richer Relationships:
A Couple's Group
Virtual and In Person
Calling all couples, married, dating, or engaged! This group aims to strengthen your relationship by preparing yourself and your partner to combat stress, unmet needs, and unpleasant emotions.
Informed by dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), this group allows partners to gain identification for what is taking place within their relationships and personal lives, and gather techniques to more effectively express their needs, increase present-moment awareness, and achieve emotional resilience. Couples will be provided a safe and supportive space to connect their lived experiences to the concepts learned to overcome barriers to growth.
Group Goals
Present-Moment Awareness
Cultivate mindfulness skills to enhance your awareness of the present moment and deepen your connection with your partner. Learn to approach experiences with curiosity, non-judgment, and acceptance.
Increased Emotional Resilience
Explore ways to manage and regulate your emotions, both individually and as a couple. Gain valuable tools to cope with stress, conflict, and challenging emotions, fostering emotional resilience and a healthier relationship dynamic.
Enhanced Communication
Learn practical strategies and techniques to foster effective and compassionate communication within your relationship. Develop skills to express yourself assertively, actively listen, and validate each other's experiences and emotions.
Improved Conflict Resolution
Learn constructive approaches to resolving conflicts and disagreements in a respectful and healthy manner. Explore strategies for problem-solving, compromise, and finding common ground.
DBT Informed
Participation
This group is open to ten participants (5 couples) aged 26+ on a first come first serve basis. Participants must be members of a couple and attend groups as a pair. All participants will be required to attend all group sessions. Your commitment is essential.
An initial consultation session is required prior to the beginning of the group.
Informed by the principles of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), this group offers a unique approach to couples therapy. DBT provides a framework for enhancing emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness—skills that can greatly benefit relationships. Through interactive discussions, experiential exercises, psychoeducation, and practical techniques, couples will explore how to express their needs effectively, increase present-moment awareness, and develop strategies to overcome obstacles together.
