Relationships 101:  A 4-Session Tele-Workshop on Creating OUTstanding Relationships

Includes

  • 4 weekly conference call classes with a combination of lecture, discussion and homework

  • Homework reading and exercises assigned for each couple between calls

 

Benefits

  • Anonymity for couples desiring privacy 

  • Save Time:  Don't spend time getting ready and driving to an appointment

  • Save Money:  Four sessions for the cost of one in-office session!

  • Connect with other couples:  Learn about other couple's experiences in a safe, confidential environment

  • Therapy that travels with you:  Equal access for couples around the world - if one of you is on a business trip and the other at home you can still meet by phone for therapy (perfect for long-distance couples too!) 

  • Utilizes many learning tools:  Combination of education, discussion, personal sharing via bridge line calls, and personalized interventions with weekly emails

  • Costs less and is more effective than seeking therapy with unskilled or unspecialized providers

  • You will end up with a 44 page e-book, personalized with your completed homework, on healthy relationships by the end of the four weeks

  • You will know exactly what you need to be doing immediately to improve your relationship - no mystery about it - no guessing 

  • Taught by a specialized therapist - Michele O'Mara specializes in same-sex relationships, has authored a book for same-sex couples, and was voted Indianapolis' Best Gay Couples Therapist

Session Topics

Session 1:  I love you, now change for me!  Understanding our attractions and why we ultimately want to change the ones we are in love with!

Session 2:  Why is it so hard to sustain that lovin' feeling?  Learn the stages of relationship development, the reasons it is hard to recapture the feelings we had at the start of our relationships, and discover the ways that each of you participates in making your relationship unsatisfying.

Session 3: How do I know if you are the one for me? Examining your relationship's purpose, common reasons we are tempted to end things, and the best reason to stay in a relationship and the best reason to get out of a relationship.

Session 4:  If you are the one, how can we make this last forever?  Discover a formula for outstanding relationships.  Learn to apply your relationship to this formula to identify the exact changes that need to occur for your relationship to be more successful. 

Cost                                                                                                                     $195 per couple
