Relationship Bootcamps

The Relationship Bootcamp is a two-day workshop for couples and individuals who want to learn the essential skills for more loving, intimate relationships. The workshop is taught by certified RLT therapists all around the country, both in-person and online.

All Participants will leave knowing:

The proven tools to be both connected and protected in relationships
The Five Losing Strategies we fall into and how they harm relationships
The Five Winning Strategies to repair and revitalize relationships, and how to practice them
Healthy listening and responding skills to effectively communicate with your partner
Where you get “stuck” most often in your relationships and how to become “unstuck”

Mental Health Professionals will leave with a better understanding of how to:

Teach couples to assess their losing strategies in relationships and move into the winning strategies for dramatic turnarounds
Teach clients to build healthy self-esteem and use protective boundaries so they can be connected and protected in relationships
Give women the tools of relational empowerment so they can be lovingly assertive
Equip men with the tools of relational awakening so they can open up and show up
