Relationship Bootcamp for Singles

  •  Do you want to be in a relationship that lasts?
  •  Do you feel something always goes wrong when you meet and fall for someone?
  •  Do you go too fast - or too slow - in relationships and end up losing out?
  •  Do you do things in relationships that you know will work against you but can’t seem to stop yourself?!
  •  Does it feel as though everyone you know is in a good relationship except you?
  •  Do you want to be close to others but don’t know how to get over your fear of being hurt? 

You’re not alone. Many people feel frustrated by a failure to understand how their intimate relationships go wrong. None of us are taught the steps for how to create a healthy and sustainable intimate relationship. Through trial and error we feel our way and may end up unconsciously repeating unhealthy patterns again and again … feeling alone and confused, or in relationships that are unhealthy and unhappy. 

How can we change this? First we have to learn to be accepting, confident and compassionate of ourselves and then how to bring that self into partnership with another person. 

Relationship Bootcamp is:

An initial conversation to discuss your individual needs, followed by a series of six one-on-one practical coaching therapy sessions designed to help you identify and work on the issues preventing you from creating the relationships you want. Working together, with empathy and understanding, we will:

 

  • Consider the patterns of your family and past relationships
  • Observe the way that you relate to people - your communication styles and influences
  • Define your emotional needs in relationships and understand what triggers strong reactions within you
  • Clarify what you have come to believe about yourself and the effect on your confidence and self esteem
  • Introduce practical approaches to overcoming the obstacles between you and establishing intimate and lasting love relationships

Learn strategies to understand who you are in and out of relationships:

  • Understand your family of origin, relationship patterns and behaviours and develop the awareness and skills to change them;
  • Recognise your emotional triggers and manage them so that they are no longer a destructive force in your relationships
  • Identify the core beliefs about yourself which are creating barriers to intimacy and discover how you can change those beliefs
  • Recognise and value your unique strengths and talents and what you bring to your relationships that is special
  • Experience intimacy without giving up your own sense of identity
