    You will learn how to select and utilize appropriate tools to help a couple deepen their Friendship System. You will learn how to clarify a couple’s conflicts in terms of solvable, perpetual, and grid-locked problems, and use the “Dreams Within Conflict” technique to help a couple feel hopeful and to achieve break-through with their perpetual conflict.

    Dates for Level 3 will be announced soon.

What is a clinical training?

Trainings with Jonathan are conducted in a group setting with periods of individual time to reflect on what is taught in the group. Trainings range from people just graduating from studying in a mental health field to professionals who have been working in a mental health field for years! Trainings are available a few times a year. If you don’t see one geared for you, check back later or sign up to get our newsletter!
