Structured Conversations

Structured Conversations Lead to Healthier Relationships

Structured conversations must happen with consistency and regularity, remain focused on specific skills and goals, and have two committed partners who show up ready to do the work. The best way for a couple to improve how they communicate is to practice with proven skills in structured conversations. The more practice a couple has using research-based skills, the faster they will learn ways to communicate more effectively. Consistent practice is the simplest and most obvious, and also in many ways most challenging, way to help relationships.
