When to Stay and When to Go: Research-based Relationship Assessment

Regardless of your clientele, the issue of relationships will come up sooner or later. These intimate bonds are a factor in trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, grief, adjustment, and decision-making—not to mention overall contentment in life. While you may not specialize in relationship counseling, best practice requires at least a basic knowledge of what makes relationships work and what does not. This workshop provides a research-based, highly-practical model for shedding light on the most complicated connections.

Learning Objectives:

  1. To list three of five descriptors of long-term, contented relationship.
  2. To describe why security is a stabilizing effect on relationships.
  3. To provide a working definition of personal boundaries.

The Clinical Basics of Sex and Love

In our lifetime, the human expression of love and sex has not changed, despite having a plethora of new words to describe it. In the service of being “woke” one can spend a great deal of time attempting to stay current and cognizant of the new vernacular, while at the same time failing to understand these innate experiences at the most basic level. This workshop will present a practical guide for navigating our most intimate connections and provide insight valuable to our professional and personal lives.

Learning Objectives:

  1. To understand why humans needs love and intimate relationships.
  2. To describe the effects of hormones on sexual desire.
  3. To explain the difference between introverts and extroverts.
