Multi-Couples Weekend Workshop: Deepening Connection, Communication and Intimacy

This 3-day, multi-couples weekend workshop – for behavioral health professionals and their partners only – is designed to help you build greater communication and intimacy in your relationship. Through action-oriented exercises, such as psychodrama, sociometry, art making and music, couples will be provided tools to deepen vulnerability and emotional intimacy, work through conflict, build communication, and identify and begin to release defenses that are getting in the way. Couples can gain insight into how their histories are impacting their relationship, and create a new road map for the future.

COVID POLICIES

Due to the on-going Covid-19 epidemic, and because with this modality we are in very close physical proximity, participants are asked to bring rapid Covid test on the first day in time to complete the test before we start the workshop, or complete the test prior to arriving, and bring your test as proof of a negative result.  If anyone either tests positive for Covid-19 or has illness symptoms, we ask that you not return for the remainder of the workshop and a credit will be given towards a future workshop for time missed.

If there is reason to believe your test is a false positive (which studies show are rare), you can get a PCR test and may be allowed to return to the workshop with:

• a negative test
• no symptoms
• a willingness to wear a medical grade mask (N-95, KN-95, KF-94, or surgical)
• other group participants feel comfortable with thisGeneral mask requirements for the workshop will be dependent on local ordinance and communicated prior to group.

PLEASE NOTE

We also request that all workshops and trainings be scent-free (other than pure essential oils). Many people have allergies to such substances and we appreciate your abstaining from wearing any perfumes or colognes while participating (essential oils are ok).

Since many people have allergies to pet hair and dander, please be mindful of wearing clothing that is as free of these as possible, so as not to cause an allergic reaction in others.

There is no eating permitted in group (this includes mints, gum, etc), as it can be distracting to you and fellow group members.

SUBSTANCE USE POLICY

If you are in substance abuse recovery, you must have at least 2 years of continuous sobriety.  It is also required that all non-recovering participants abstain from alcohol and non-prescribed substances for the duration of this workshop, as well as for the 48 hours prior to workshop commencement. This will aid in being present for the personal work.
