CONSTRUCTIVE CONFLICT COMMUNICATION 

Marriage in the 21st century carries more complex meanings and requires more sustained effort than ever before. Because of this challenge, our seminar is designed to provide engaged couples with a marital enrichment program focusing on the key factors toward increasing marital quality and improving marital stability.

Practitioners and researchers agree: the presence or absence of conflict does not determine the quality of a marriage; rather, it is in how the couple handles conflictual situations that the character of the relationship develops. Relatively few couples approach marriage with the skills and commitment requisite for marital success.

Working within a Catholic Christian framework which emphasizes marriage as a covenant, our skills-based seminar will help engaged couples experience how relatively simple behavioral exercises have been proven to foster stable, caring marriages.
