What Will You Learn in This Course?

In this clinical case, Lisa and Mark, a couple in their early 50s, embark on a profound journey to mend their relationship after the revelation of Mark’s ongoing affair. Amidst broken trust, the complexities of their living arrangement, and underlying individual struggles, they strive to find solace and reconnect on deeper emotional and physical levels.
Dr. Jill Squyres Groubert uses strategic steps and techniques to help Mark and Lisa restore trust and rebuild their relationship. These skills focus on autonomic regulation, assertive communication, trust-building, self-discovery, career exploration, forgiveness, and redefining a shared vision. This transformative counseling process empowers the rediscovery of love, joy, and resilience in the couple’s marriage.
