RLT Conference 2025
Living Love: Transforming Ourselves and Our World
Connect, deepen your skills, and build your network at the world’s first RLT Conference. Early bird tickets are now available until December 31st.
With Terry Real, Carol Gilligan, Deran Young and many others!
The RLT Conference is a multi-day, live, in-person experience with Terry Real and his esteemed faculty, to rebuild and nurture connection in a world that often feels anything but compassionate.
You’ll explore groundbreaking relational topics, connect with visionary therapists, and build a network of support within our thriving RLT community.
Awaken the Power of Love in an Unloving World
This year’s theme, Living Love: Transforming Ourselves and Our World, embraces intimacy not just as a tool in our work, but as a way of living in true connection with ourselves and others.
Our work as therapists can often feel isolating, but the RLT Conference offers a rare opportunity to step out of that solitude and into a room filled with peers who share your passion, challenges, and vision.
Forget impersonal seminars and virtual screens. This unique event will form new friendships, reimagine what’s possible in your practice, and inspire you with a weekend of professional growth and renewal.
Join Terry Real and our RLT community to experience how we are building the future of effective relational therapy—together.
