Provide life-changing transformation for couples and relationships.
Working with intimate relationships is one of the most challenging issues we face as therapists...

...because it requires us to navigate multiple perspectives, hear the problems that are not being said, and reignite connections our clients have all but given up on.

Most of the relationship repair approaches we have learned rely on spoken communication and behavior change to achieve treatment gains — and they miss a critical component of healing.

To get to the actual root of the issue and truly heal relationships, the field's leaders have shown us we need to work through the body.

Join Somatic therapy expert and Couples Therapist, Deborah Fox, to learn exactly how to use body-based interventions in your own practice — so you can quickly and effectively treat relationships in distress.

Through this six-module, step-by-step course, you'll learn how to expertly navigate arguments, overcome emotional shut-downs, and work through trauma triggers...

...so you can feel fully confident working with the body to help couples find the deep healing they are so desperately seeking.

  • Decode body movement, muscle tension, skin coloration, and more to quickly and accurately identify clinical issues and determine appropriate treatment interventions
  • Track subtle shifts in the body that clue you into the presence of emotional triggers and needs that are outside of the client's conscious awareness
  • Apply Polyvagal-informed interventions to keep clients from getting overwhelmed, shutting down, or becoming retraumatized in session
  • Interrupt nervous system dysregulation in order to create safety and enable growth and change
  • Work confidently and effectively with sex and intimacy
  • And much more ...

WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER IN THIS COURSE
The Interaction of Two Nervous Systems: A new perspective on relationship work

In this first module, find out exactly why body-based interventions are the key to a successful relationship and couple's work. Discover the brain-based insights and Polyvagal principles that will change the way you work with relationships and learn specific experiential exercises that integrate these principles to help you unlock the implicit memory.

Incorporating Body-Based Interventions into Couples Therapy Sessions

BDeborah shows you, step-by-step, how to bring body-based approaches into critical moments through a therapy session. You'll learn powerful interventions to quickly establish safety, facilitate effective communication, and more. Plus, take your front-row seat in two couples' sessions and see exactly how Deborah uses these tools in her own practice.

Learning the Language of the Body and Mind-Body Interventions to Repair and Heal relationships

In this module, you'll learn how to decode the language of the body and discover how to harness the power of the nervous system to enhance your work with relationship dynamics. You'll also build your somatic toolkit with easy-to-use experiential exercises for regulating emotions, reducing overwhelm, facilitating memory reconsolidation, and more. Plus, step back into the therapy room with Deborah and watch as she uses these powerful interventions with three couples.

Full Session Demonstration

Take your learning to the next level as you watch a somatic couples' therapy session from start to finish and see first-hand how Deborah uses signals from the body to rapidly dissolve barriers and restore connections. You'll also see how she helps her clients use the wisdom of their bodies as a resource for deep healing and repair.

Somatic-Informed Sexual Difficulties in Relationships

Based on decades of experience as a sex therapist, Deborah has gathered the most important things every therapist needs to know about sex and sex therapy — and she'll share them with you in this module. She also provides specific ways you can improve the way you work with sex in therapy through body-based knowledge and interventions.
