Some structures I use with couples:
· Genogram: Drawing your family tree with the relationship dynamics that illustrate your early models for relationships and interaction.
· Parental Portrait: Relationship aspects that construct the patterns you may consciously or unconsciously find attractive. Resources
· Enneagram Personality Style: Creating a composite of your two personalities and determining the strengths and stressors in your relationship. Resources
· Communication and Understanding: Learning respectful verbal interaction that is usually affected by gender and personality and is necessary to be best friends. Resources
· Disagreement instead of Conflict: Learning to stay emotionally 'clean' through "Airing Your Grievances Safely." Resources
· Reviving Romance: Enriching the art and intimacy of a passionate marriage through affection, sexuality and individuation. Resources
