Couple's Connection Group

This weekend intensive combines learnings from mindfulness, humanistic psychology, and emotionally-focused couples therapy in a gentle, experiential, engaging manner.

Explore attachment needs and relationship dynamics, understand how unmet needs impact emotional connection and interactions.

Practice Nonviolent Communication (NVC) skills, share needs and emotions in ways that foster connection and reduce defensiveness.

Learn to make needs based requests, create requests rooted in universal needs, centered in choice rather than demand.

‍

Who is this group for?

This is for couples who love their partners, but feel sometimes (or lots of times) that they struggle to understand one another, or fall into patterns of miscommunication too often, and end up feeling angry, tired, or alone. This is for couples who want to learn new patterns, but can't fit in weekly therapy yet, or who find it hard to stay motivated with books or self-directed learning. This weekend is for couples willing to roll up their sleeves and try something new because they value their relationship and their partner.

Led by Hannah Bricker, LMSW, LGSW

I am a licensed mental health provider (LMSW), a mindful communication and yoga teacher and educator. For the last 20 years I have been focusing on ways to help myself and others heal, learn and grow and have been inspired by many perspectives. I have studied Mindful Nonviolent Communication and conflict resolution dynamics with many teachers, and led trainings for couples, educators and students. This experience has grounded my approach in curiosity, empathy and compassion. I specialize in relationship dynamics, supporting individuals and couples in navigating challenges and fostering deeper connections. I have been trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and EMDR. These trainings have provided a strong foundation in trauma informed care and attachment needs.
