Leadership Training Manual for Spiritual Partnership Couples Groups
Susan Page has pioneered innovative “couples groups,” in which only one member of the couple is invited to attend the group! They are different because they do not focus at all on communication skills but instead teach unilateral Loving Actions that can have instant results. The Eight Loving Actions are a brand new tool for couples that — amazingly — do not require the cooperation of both partners.
These groups are powerful and effective. Facilitating them is rewarding because they create fast and often astonishing results for participants.
Susan calls her groups “Spiritual Partnership Support Groups,” (because the Loving Actions are based on universal spiritual principles), but you may call your groups anything you feel is appropriate. The groups teach couples exactly how to use the Eight Loving Actions Susan presents in her book, Why Talking is Not Enough.
The Training Manual is appropriate for you, whether you are a therapist, counselor, marriage educator, or an individual who wants support from others who are also experimenting with the Eight Loving Actions.
The Manual will show you all you need to know, in great detail:
- How to Recruit Members for your Groups
- Group Composition and Format
- Preparation for Leading a Group
- Session by Session Agenda
- Common Recurring Themes and How to Respond
- General Group Facilitation Skills
