UPCOMING
WORKSHOP
Couples and Cinema Weekend
What is It?
Matthew Alexander Ph.D and Kevin Davis, LCSW, are currently
offering weekend marriage enrichment workshops for couples. These innovative
workshops feature the use of clips from such popular movies as the Story
of Us, the Ref, Pretty Woman and Ordinary People to highlight essential
elements of successful coupling. Group
discussion, journaling and couples dialogue will also be used. By the end of the weekend, couples will be
able to:
- Identify “hot spots” in their relationship that are related
to their family of origin
- Practice compassionate communication and effective apology
- Learn sure-fire techniques to de-escalate fights
- Understand how to find “win-win” solutions to power
struggles
- Build upon their strengths and romantic history
Who Leads It?
Marriage enrichment workshops are led by Dr. Alexander and
Kevin Davis, LCSW, former director of marriage and family therapy training at
the United Family Services and current private practitioner. Their workshops
are fun, engaging and practical.
Dr. Alexander and Ms. Davis offer a combined forty-five
years of experience in helping couples achieve their potential. Both have
advanced training in marital therapy, work with couples extensively in their
private practices and are leaders in training marriage therapists. In addition,
Dr. Alexander brings his expertise in using movies for education and therapy.
He is an acclaimed public speaker and author of the recently published book Cinemeducation: A Comprehensive Guide to Using
