Peace Building (Conflict Resolution) for Couples and Families

Kira is a trained Arbinger facilitator and can help you and your family identify and shift dynamics that invite conflict, as well as gain awareness about areas of “self-deception.” We all have blind spots, but it is much more difficult for us to see our own blind spots than those of others. Kira can help you and your family member(s) gain insight, and practice new patterns that invite peace instead of conflict. Kira is also trained in the Gottman couples therapy approach.
