Marriage and Family - Paul Bogacs

Sunday

Good marriages are not about good luck!

 Drawing on some of the best research available to us, we will outline what works in long term, satisfying relationships. Learn why its important to draw your love map, how to make frequent bids for connection and how to manage perpetual conflicts. 

 Monday

How to keep your kids out of therapy!

 In this workshop we explore parenting from the perspective of building emotionally resilient children and young people. We will discuss why over-protecting our kids is not helpful and why both firmlove and softlove are vital to producing emotionally healthy adults.
