Workshop Overview
Communication is the foundation of a strong, connected relationship—but misunderstandings, defensiveness, and conflict can get in the way. This engaging and interactive workshop will teach couples how to communicate more effectively using Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and the Gottman Method, two research-backed approaches that foster deeper understanding, emotional safety, and lasting connection.
What You’ll Learn:
✅ How to express your needs and feelings without blame or criticism using NVC
✅ Tools for active listening and responding with empathy
✅ The four communication habits that damage relationships—and what to do instead
✅ Gottman’s proven strategies for strengthening emotional connection and managing conflict
✅ Practical exercises to bring home and use right away

Benjamin Huff is heavily influenced by his awe of the natural world and believes fundamentally that life is a set of relationships—from the atoms in our bodies to our environments, culture, ideas, loved ones, and the larger cosmic dance of the sun and seasons on earth. We all exist in relationships. The question that emerges is: What relationships are impacting our well-being, and how might we change our relationships to enable us to thrive? Informed by this belief, Ben works from an integrative approach to psychotherapy called Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) which is a trauma-informed, experiential, systems-based and attachment-oriented model. At the heart of this approach is a holistic understanding of people in relationship to others and the knowledge that change happens through new experiences. Ben also is a trained Gottman Therapist (levels I and II).
Whether you're seeking to improve everyday communication, navigate conflict with greater ease, or deepen your emotional bond, this workshop will challenge and empower you to grow together.
Join us for an interactive experience that encourages vulnerability, fosters connection, and provides the tools to transform frustration into deeper understanding and intimacy.
