Become a certified couple therapist and be fully confident in your ability to work with couples and modern relationships
Join Dr. Alexandra Solomon, highly acclaimed author, educator, and relationship expert
Begins August 25, 2025
More therapists than ever are working with couples — but research indicates that most haven’t been trained for the complexity this work demands.
Effective couple therapy takes more than just teaching communication and conflict management skills…
Real transformation happens when you help couples get underneath the surface — to connect with the deep needs that shape how the partners show up for each other.
That requires specialized skills that aren’t taught in most clinical trainings.
This program changes all of that – providing the comprehensive, start-to-finish training you need to help your clients develop the unique, authentic relationships they were meant to have!
Join Dr. Alexandra Solomon, author, trainer, clinician, and one of today’s most trusted voices on couple therapy and intimate relationships…
…who will walk with you through every step of the process (from initial phone call to final goodbye), and equip you with a holistic, all-encompassing approach that she’s perfected through 25 years of couple work.
You’ll master skills that have been proven to work for the complex challenges that couples bring, including issues with sexuality, boundaries, cultural differences, gender roles, infidelity, money issues, break-ups, and more.
We guarantee that at the end of this training, you’ll walk away as a confident, fully prepared couple therapist.
Enrollment for the full intensive program (including live interactive calls with Dr. Alexandra Solomon) is only available for a brief time…
Dr. Alexandra Solomon is at the forefront of discovering what actually works for modern relationships and marriages.
Through 25 years of frontline work with couples and relationships, she has developed the Relational Self-Awareness (RSA) approach that’s been a game-changer for couple therapy.
RSA uniquely focuses on helping partners develop compassionate, reflective, and curious relationships with themselves, so they can create a secure foundation for a thriving relationship.
The approach equips each individual to correctly and deeply understand their emotions, triggers, history, beliefs, and behaviors…
… allowing the couple to live with values and systems that are true to them, so they can be together in their own unique and purposeful way.
More emphasis on the “why” couples do what they do… leading to long-term change.
Now for the first time ever, she’s making her full approach available to you in this exclusive and fully comprehensive program.
Sign up today, and you’ll learn how to:
This is more than a training — this is your opportunity to do couples work with greater purpose, precision, and presence.
Never before have couple clients had such elevated expectations of their relationships and marriages...
... wanting an emotional soulmate, a faithful lover, an engaged co-parent, and a reliable teammate to support them through every one of life’s storms.
With such elevated expectations, it’s no wonder we’re experiencing historically high levels of couple distress.
And when our clients come for treatment, they bring those high expectations with them and are looking to us to reshape and save their relationship.
That can feel like a heavy load. But you don’t have to feel overwhelmed.
That’s why I’m inviting you to join me for this transformative program that will give you the clinical tools and confidence to guide your couple clients to authentic, resilient, and deeply connected relationships.
If you’re ready to lead couples from disconnection to lasting change — this is your invitation.
Warmly,
Alexandra Solomon, PhD
