LOS ANGELES REALHOPE WORKSHOPS
Couples Learning To Handle Conflict With Confidence!
Go straight to register here,

My fun, easy and educational one day couples communication skills course prevents destructive conflict. It prevents you from saying those things that timemagyou have to apologize for. And, it will give each partner the power to get the other to 'zip their lip' & listen.

Much of the workshop is based on the PREP™ methods of skill training for couples used in many
military bases, churches and other organizations.  I also use the principles of Dr. Gottman & Harville Hendrix.    It is research based and simple to learn.  Video simulations help couples learn quickly & safely.

Men like the 'rules & tools' based' approach ---> ENDING THE CONFLICT!  
(i.e. -Get her to stop complaining.)

Women LOVE THE RESULTS ---> BETTER COMMUNICATION! 
(i.e.- Get him to listen & express more.)

"I never thought this seminar would be as fun as it turned out to be. I'm so glad we don't have to live like that anymore. I KNOW that our relationship is going to be so much better after this workshop!" - Alfred & Michele (2003 seminar attendees)  

I will refund your fee if you don't think you're relationship has changed! Register here now.

In the seminar YOU WILL:

  • learn to STOP the arguing on a dime with confidence that your partner will respect it..... AND you will return to the subject!
  • learn the Five Commitments...learn what to do if one or both partners can't keep their word.
  • practice the listening, expressing & responding to feelings constructively exercises.
  • only be sharing with your partner- no group level sharing unless desired.
  • only agree to commitments that YOU think makes sense for you.
  • NOT be talking to your partner about 'hot topics' in the workshop unless you choose to.
  • watch videos illustrating the concepts.
  • practice responses to practice video examples.
  • watch instructor role plays.
  • GET TWO MANUALS, AND
  • MOST OF ALL......YOU'LL BOTH HAVE FUN LEARNING WITH THE AUTHOR!!
  • Register for next L.A. Couples Workshop HERE.

Yes, there are other things you might want to do on a Saturday, but
spending 7 hours learning better communication skills brings PEACE OF MIND and:

  • Men can feel appreciated, instead of criticized by their wives. Learn the secret of how to listen ONCE to her feelings about something. Learn a way to stop those long relationship dialogues when you want to.
  • And women can finally have a man listen all the way through an emotional dialogue, without interrupting. And get this.....WITHOUT HIS GETTING DEFENSIVE!
  • Transform anger or emotional distance to intimacy and desire. Enhance your sense of partnership. Taught in a fun classroom setting.
  • Learning these skills will help make a frustrating relationship better and a good one GREAT!

*The workshop is a safe educational environment for practicing skills using fabricated examples of typical couple's conflict. You will not be talking or practicing on the 'hot button' issues of your relationship, unless you choose to do so. In addition, one main objective of the workshop is that each individual identify for him, or herself, which areas of communication can be improved. A guideline of this workshop is that at no time can one partner tell the other what he or she needs to improve on. That is for each person to determine for him themselves.

Our attitude is: If change is to happen...let it begin with me.

Workshop Registration Using Credit Card

Two workbooks will be shipped if your order comes in prior to one week before the event. Otherwise, we will give you your manuals at the event and refund your $5. shipping charge.

Remember, that there is a money back guarantee so it's risk free!  And, you can't really put a price on the peace and harmony that can result from these communication skills and agreements.

Compare that though with what you spend and what you get with other methods, like professional marriage therapy which can cost you $150. per hour for 15 or 20 or more sessions. You might also ask yourself if serenity, peace, respect and probably more lovemaking might be worth the cost.

For less than the cost of two sessions with a therapist, you and your partner get 7 hours of skills focused training and education with me that will change the way you handle conflict forever.

I am still the workshop leader for all Los Angeles seminars.

Two workbooks and my personal attention and instruction is included. This is a tremendous concentration of time and focus upon learning exactly the skills that may transform your relationship.

guarantee If you don't believe that your relationship skills are significantly improved I will write you a refund check for the cost of the seminar.
