Keeping the Love You Find for April 12-13

An intensive, two day workshop appropriate for singles or married individuals, who are tired of making the same mistakes over and over again and want to learn the secrets to finding and keeping lasting love. This is a workshop for individuals who want to be the “right” kind of partner instead of trying find the “right” partner or trying to make some else into the “right” partner.

 

April 12-13, 2008
Sat and Sun 8:30 am to 6:00 pm  

 

This workshop brings into awareness your unconscious childhood hurts and the character traits you have developed to protect yourself from those wounds.  You will understand how the wounds and defenses you have developed reappear and are replayed in intimate adult relationships.  You will be given new communication tools and a chance to develop a personal growth plan that will help you attract and keep the love you find.  The workshop includes lectures, guided imageries, written exercises and small group process.  A systematic workbook is provided for your use during and after the workshop.  While you will be invited to participate and to build a supportive group atmosphere, you will not be pressured into unwelcome disclosure.  Confidentiality is maintained in a safe and comfortable environment.

 

 

 

 

What You Can Expect:

*Self Discovery

Discover why you are always attracted to similar types of people. Understand the connection between the frustrations you’ve experienced in intimate relationships and your frustrations in childhood.  Recognize your past wounds and defenses which you use to protect yourself from being hurt again.  These are the walls that prevent intimate relationships.

* Healing Past Wounds

You will have opportunities to process the healing of past wounds and you will get a chance to “say goodbye” to former love partners.  As you release old feelings you will be able to look forward to the future and begin to get over your fears.

*New Relationship Skills

You will get to practice effective skills to help you break the cycle of negative relating.  You will see how you inadvertently sabotage relationships to protect yourself from unconscious fears and anticipated hurts.  The tools you learn will help you understand conflict in your relationships and how to turn conflict into an opportunity for healing and growth.

About Jill Fein Baker, LCSW

Jill is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (Illinois), a member of the Academy of Clinical Social Workers (a national accreditation) with a Masters in Social Work from the Jane Addams College of Social Work at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

 

In 1989, after seeing Harville Hendrix on the Oprah show, she attended his “Getting the Love You Want” workshop for couples.  “Like many wives I dragged my reluctant husband to the workshop so that Harville could fix him.  Soon I found out how much work I had to do.  Of course, that was really a blessing in disguise, because I didn't even like the person I had become in that marriage, but I didn't know how not to be that.  I was fascinated by the Imago therapy and tools and realized it had immense potential benefit, both personally and professionally.  I eagerly began training with Dr. Hendrix.”

Jill was certified as an Imago therapist by Dr. Hendrix in June of 1990, one of the first five therapists in the Chicago area to do so.  Together with some of those colleagues, they founded the Institute for Imago Relationship Therapy of Greater Chicago, a professional training and support organization.  Jill is recognized as one of five key people in developing and revising this “Keeping” workshop material.
