Relationship Foundations Program for couples

Give your relationship the best start: Understand why challenges arise and learn strategies to prevent them

Structured 5-week program delivered in consecutive weekly sessions designed to help couples prepare for a healthy and lasting partnership.

The program includes a comprehensive assessment process, including an exploration of the relationship through oral history and the use of PREPARE/ENRICH, a relationship assessment tool that guides discussion on key relationship topics and provides insight into the couple’s dynamics across important areas of their relationship providing an evidence-based understanding of the relationship, identifying strengths, challenges, and relational dynamics to inform tailored interventions aligned with specific needs and goals.

Throughout the 5-week program, couples will:

  • Explore communication styles and strengthen connection

  • Identify individual needs, boundaries, and expectations, and communicate them clearly so you both can show up authentically in the relationship, preventing the build-up of resentment that can create distance

  • Understand where communication breaks down and learn effective strategies to address it

  • Acquire skills for effective conflict communication and resolution

  • Learn how to cultivate trust to support vulnerability and true intimacy

  • Strengthen each partner’s relationship with self and prevent co-dependency

  • Develop a shared vision and collective goals for the relationship
