Welcome to Our Virtual Skills Practice Community and Workshops

Are your relationships still throwing you off track despite your hard work on your individual recovery?
Do you wish you had a place to practice these skills with others on an ongoing basis?
Are you ready to start doing something new in your relationships to get different results?
Have your relationships been complicated by Addictions, Mental Health Issues or Trauma?
Our Mission
Families are strongly impacted by the dynamics associated with Alcoholism, Addiction, Mental Health Issues and Trauma. Our focus is healing intergenerational patterns of behavior through connection, education, and practice.
“Family pathology rolls from generation to generation like a fire in the woods, taking down everything in its path until one person, in one generation, has the courage to turn and face the flames. That person brings peace to his ancestors and spares the children that follow.” Terry Real
Our Approach
Participants receive education which sheds light on beliefs and behaviors that get in the way of the closeness they desire in their relationships. In our Skills Practice Communities, participants begin to challenge old beliefs and apply new tools to situations that have been difficult for them. As new tools are put into place, behaviors that no longer serve them begin to fall away. Healing happens through connection. In our Skills Practice Communities, we create an atmosphere of authenticity which fosters courage and growth. Relationships evolve as individuals recover their whole-hearted way of being.
Our Purpose
Knowledge does not always equal understanding. It takes practice and repetition to rewire the neural pathways in the brain and change old belief patterns, thoughts, reactions, and emotions. This is WHY we have created a live virtual skills practice community for Relational Recovery. We not only teach relationship skills, we offer ongoing LIVE practice of them in a safe community of others on a similar path. And it is a community that can travel with you wherever you go. Our community is very interactive and offered virtually on zoom.

Testimonials from Previous Participants
“The workshop met and exceeded my expectations by helping me recognize when I am experiencing an emotion-activating event and then honor those strong emotions not by a counterproductive emotional outburst, but by using tools provided in the workshop to respond in ways and at times that can benefit my relationships. The workshop provided the crucial bridge between being convinced of the utility of such practices to actually beginning to practice them.”
“It was a safe place to talk about relationship issues and learn from knowledgeable, supportive, compassionate and thoughtful, professional therapists. The educational information along with hearing other's share their experiences helped to validate what I had been learning on my own. There was a lot of information covered and enough time to see different topics put into practice.”
“This module gave me insight in some of my less functional behaviors so that I could work on these in my relationships.”
“Approaching the challenges of communication from the Adaptive Child/Functional Adult perspective was a great way to help it make sense. It really all clicked for me when being able to look at times I have failed and identify it as the "child" and also look at my successes as the adult.”
