( HS Pharaon 150473 2025) Tolerating Goodness in Relationships Embracing Connection Without Sabotage
Tracking # 20-1344081
Course overview
We often focus on helping couples navigate conflict, pain, and disconnection in relationships but what about the moments of goodness? For many, intimacy, kindness, or vulnerability can feel just as threatening, uncomfortable, and something from which to disconnect. This workshop explores the protective functions behind rejecting or sabotaging goodness in relationships, both from the position of receiving it and giving it. Therapists will learn how to help clients build the capacity to receive and give goodness in their romantic relationships, and how to build the tolerance in their nervous systems in order to do so.
