Groups & Workshops

 “No one ever told me that grief felt so much like fear.” “You care so much you feel as though you will bleed to death with the pain of it.” “Only people who are capable of loving strongly can also suffer great sorrow, but this same necessity of loving serves to counteract their grief and heals them.”

Grief is not one size fits all. It looks and behaves and lasts differently for everyone. 

This group is special. It includes the broken hearted, the hopeful and the healing. Together we learn healthy coping skills to heal and to remember our loved ones with less pain. 

Tuesday Afternoons 4:00-5:30 PM

This is a free group for our community.

Platinum Love

Couples Workshop

Laugh, Love, Connect and Grow your relationship through this intensive weekend workshop. 

We take our kids to hitting lessons, swimming lessons, guitar and dance lessons. We invest in self-care, home care, yard care and all the things. Why are we not investing in our most precious gift, our marriage? 

Join Leilani Mason, LICSW, a Gottman trained couples' therapist for a weekend to remember. We will learn skills to ignite connection, inspire friendship and find passion within our relationships. We will learn ways to navigate conflict that bring us closer to one another rather than creating hurt. We will learn to better understand ourselves and each other. 

Our curriculum has been developed from 40 years of research with more than 3,000 couples. It is grounded on what works in relationships that are happy and stable.

Day I

We will learn how to foster respect, affection, appreciation, and closeness in your relationship. We will build and share a deeper connection with each other. We will learn how putting friendship first is the way to a healthy relationship and joy filled future together. 

We will cover:

• Love mapping.
• Nurturing fondness & admiration.
• Turning towards one another instead of away.
• Understanding each other's love languages.

Day II 

We will spend a full day learning your conflict style and how it can help grow your love, friendship, trust, and commitment to one another. 

We will cover: 

• The four conflict styles that negatively impact our relationships.
• Moving through      gridlock and perpetual issues in relationships.
• Accepting your partner’s      influence.
• Developing effective repair skills.
• The art of compromise.
• Identify when you and your partner are flooded and how to soothe yourself and help one      another.
• Creating shared meaning in life.

This intensive weekend will offer eight hours of couples counseling which would normally take 8 sessions and cost $1250 in sessions fees. You and your partner will receive the same information and skills for half of that. We will laugh, learn, and enjoy time strengthening your relationship and learning healthy ways to communicate and navigate conflict. 

The Platinum Love- Weekend Workshop is $600 per couple. We require a $200 deposit, and the remaining balance can be paid in payments. We will limit the number of couples to 5 and we will provide dinner Friday night and lunch Saturday. Registration is required and a registration deposit is required.
