Building Healthy Relationships

Tiffany Brown, Director of the Couples and Family Therapy (CFT) Program and a senior lecturer in the Department of Counseling Psychology and Human Services, with Day Hancock-Murphy and Aisha Nakrani, advanced CFT graduate students, will detail the College of Education’s Couples and Family Therapy program. They will review the keys to healthy relationships as guided by research evidence. The approach of the Center for Healthy Relationships is built on communication theory, evidence-based emotionally-focused therapy, and evidence-based couples therapy model of John and Julie Gottman. These models have provided simple techniques for folks to use to improve relationships; these techniques and strategies will be thoroughly outlined in this workshop.
