Part 1: Choosing Connection over Correction: Transforming Relationships with Intimacy and Meaning Justin Romney, Ph.D, LMFT
Choosing Connection over Correction: Transforming Relationships with Intimacy and Meaning
Couples often fall into the trap of trying to fix each other rather than fostering meaningful connection. This presentation offers practical strategies for shifting the focus from blame to building intimacy, ownership, and shared meaning. Inspired by Martin Buber's philosophy of seeing others as people rather than objects, participants will learn how to transform adversarial dynamics into collaborative, affirming relationships. The goal is to help couples move away from asking, "What’s wrong?" to discovering, "How can we make things right through connection?"
Learning Outcomes:
Participants will learn to recognize and shift behaviors that prioritize correction over fostering meaningful connection in relationships.
Attendees will explore how to use these principles to create stronger emotional bonds and collaborative relationships in couples.
Participants will understand how to help couples view each other as partners rather than adversaries, leading to more affirming and supportive interactions.
