API Care and Counselling is happy to organise this workshop to help participants learn good communication skills to increase marital satisfaction
Good communication increases marital satisfaction and helps to build deep bonds in a marriage. Compared to other relationships, good communication in marriages not only increases marital satisfaction but builds deep bonds. It also fosters trust, understanding, and emotional intimacy on a much deeper level. However, achieving good communication in marriage can be challenging. Couples may face barriers such as differences in communication styles, past unresolved conflicts, and external stressors that can hinder effective communication. It requires effort, patience, and a willingness to actively listen and understand each other’s perspectives
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
This workshop aims to help married couples maintain a strong and happy marriage through:
- Understanding the cost and benefits of communication and intimacy in marriage
- Enhancing communication skills to meet each other’s needs and navigate conflicts
- Cultivating various aspects of intimacy in marriage
Who Should Attend

- Couples experiencing communication difficulties, conflicts, or challenges in their marriage and seek guidance on how to overcome them
