The Power of Rituals in Strengthening Couples: A Clinical Approach
Presenter: Chris Cambas, MA, LMFT
Overview:
In a world filled with constant distractions, rituals offer couples a lifeline—a way to stay grounded, emotionally connected, and present with each other. From bedtime conversations and shared morning coffee to weekly date nights and holiday traditions, rituals help couples build a rhythm that fosters security and intimacy.
In this 2-hour clinical training, Chris Cambas, MA, LMFT, will guide attendees through the power of rituals as an essential tool in couples therapy. Drawing from attachment theory, neuroscience, and clinical case studies, this training will provide actionable strategies for helping couples establish meaningful rituals that support long-term relational health.
Note: This training is designed for mental health professionals and coaches, but couples are absolutely welcome to attend and apply the concepts to their own relationship.
