What Should I Expect from the Relationship Bootcamp?
You will learn essential skills from Relational Life Therapy (RLT)—the radically effective approach to relationship therapy created by internationally-recognized therapist and bestselling author, Terry Real. RLT is known for its ability to spark profound, lasting change in individuals and their relationships, and these skills will help you build and sustain meaningful connections.
You will learn through a combination of lecture, small group exercises, and personal reflections guided by the Relational Life Institute Faculty (senior RLT therapists trained by Terry Real.)
Discover the Real Work of Relationships…
We know that relationships take work, but few of us know what that work actually is…
The real work of relationships isn’t occasional, it’s minute-to-minute. And this workshop will teach you those critical minute-to-minute skills that build and sustain true intimacy.
- Override your knee-jerk reactions in heated moments to navigate conflict calmly.
- Break free from the losing strategies that block you from enjoying true intimacy.
- Complain without blame and get more of what you want from your relationship.
- Encourage, not discourage, your partner’s efforts, and celebrate progress.
- Let go of the battle of who’s right and work together to find a solution.
This is an authorized presentation of Terry Real’s Relational Bootcamp, using the skills and principles from his Relational Life Therapy (RLT) model.
Who Should Join?
Couples looking to strengthen their connection, improve communication, and sustain intimacy.
Individuals looking to overcome their barriers to intimacy and cultivate more meaningful relationships.
Mental health professionals looking to deepen their understanding of the RLT model and facilitate their own Relationship Bootcamps.
Meet Your Facilitators
Desirae Ysasi
LPC-S in Private Practice, San Antonio, TX
I have been a licensed therapist since 2006 and a certified Relational Life Therapist since 2018.
The road to RLT certification began as a desire to learn more about my passion for couples work and ended as a completely transformative experience for myself and my own relationship.
I am thrilled to enter into this relational revolution with my fellow faculty members bringing full-respect living to a whole new generation of therapists and clients.
Anna Sterk
LMFT in Private Practice, St. Paul, Minnesota
Bonny E. Slim
LMFT in Private Practice, West Hartford, Connecticut
I started training in RLT in 2012, and I have participated in most of the courses that Terry has offered since then.
Through co-facilitating several Relational Bootcamps, I discovered how transformative the group experience can be. I anticipate the impact that the practicum groups have for participants will be equally valuable. My favorite aspect of RLT is the awareness that practicing relational skills in our own lives is essential to be able to authentically share/teach these skills to others.
Julie Rudiger
LCSW, Private Practice, Denver, Co area
I have been a licensed therapist since 1993 and was introduced to Terry Real’s Relational Life Therapy in 2008.
I became certified in 2010, and since then, my practice and personal life has transformed. I love the value of Full Respect Living, which is the tenant of RLT. Teaching clients and therapists the model remains the central focus of my practice. I love the role of “coach” in teaching the skills.
Most couples and individuals just need the education and tools to better care for themselves and their partners and families.
I am also co-leader of the Relationship Bootcamp in Denver, whereby we help individuals and couples learn the skills in a 2 day intensive workshop.
Kate Harris
PhD in Private Practice, Dover, NH and PSYPACT
I am a Clinical Psychologist and a certified Martha Beck, North Star Coach. In 2015, I watched Terry Real work with 5 couples and was committed to becoming an RLT therapist, in part, because RLT honors “the worth and dignity of all people” and aligns clearly with my values.
Attending Terry’s Bootcamp in 2017 with my husband gave us tools that we use to stay close to each other and deepened our 32-year relationship. I became an RLT certified therapist in 2018 and I am excited to join the faculty and share what I’ve learned.
