Description

More than ever, couples where each partner has a career are facing a choice between their work and their relationships. It’s not just about money, which is a perennial couples issue, but that sometimes one partners’ career may fall by the way side in preference of the other’s career. When this comes up in therapy, how do we guide our clients? In this workshop, Dr. Alexandra Solomon will offer a framework and tools you can use to help your clients bring Relational Self-Awareness to the intersection of love and work. You will leave this workshop with a framework for assessing how intergenerational patterns, gender role socialization, and larger cultural narratives converge on couples and how to help couples minimize friction and maximize flow.
