Contradictory Truths: Connecting Through Discomfort, Dialoguing Through Discovery (In-Person)

What happens when someone we love or must work with states a belief that runs counter to the foundation of our beliefs? This workshop offers a guided process for grappling with those moments, without shutting down, lashing out, or disconnecting.

By combining self-awareness practices, dialogic skill-building, and reflective inquiry, participants will learn to remain present with emotional discomfort, explore divergent perspectives with curiosity, and develop the capacity to integrate the possibility of contradictory truths without losing connection with themselves or others.

This workshop is designed for individuals seeking to stay connected during times of upheaval.

Kelly Penrod and Michael Winters have been teaching communication and connection skills for over 25 years. Kelly is an LCDC (drug counselor) and Michael is a psychologist in private practice. They are married.

This program is being offered IN-PERSON only and will not be recorded. 

All times are CT. Please contact onlinelearning@junghouston.org with any questions.

Please register early. Programs with four or fewer participants are subject to cancellation, 48 hours prior to their start.
