What You’ll Learn in This Free Training

Traditional techniques often let us down when we’re navigating the minefield of couples therapy. Emotions run high, tensions escalate, or one partner is more dominant than the other. Should we really stay neutral in these cases? Is empathy alone enough to calm conflict?

If you feel overwhelmed by the complexities of couples work, this free training is for you.

Join Terry Real live to learn the 3 foundational shifts that can significantly increase your confidence and effectiveness.

You’ll explore:

Why staying neutral can stall progress
 …

and how to take a stand without shaming or alienating either partner.


How to work effectively with narcissistic partners
 …

including the techniques that hold them accountable and motivate real change.

Why personal empowerment can backfire in couples therapy
 …

and the essential relational skill that encourages clients to think like a team.

A radical new map for couples therapy that builds true partnership

including how patriarchal conditioning fuels power struggles and prevents intimacy.

We have plenty of time for live Q&A, where you can ask Terry for more insights.
