Stepfamily Dynamics: Tools for Resolving a Collision Course

Stepfamily members typically hold one of three different agendas that place them on a collision course with other members of the stepfamily. In this workshop you will learn:

 

1) what these agendas are, 

2) who holds them and why, and 

3) exactly what you need to do to prevent the conflict they produce.

 

Participants will work extensively in a small group setting. Enrolment is limited.
