What is RLT?

Relational Life Therapy (RLT) is a powerful, direct approach to relationship coaching developed by New York Times Best Selling Author, Speaker, and Educator, Terry Real, based upon his 40+ years of working as a family and couples therapist. RLT is applicable for individuals, romantic couples, and other "couples" (e.g., siblings, colleagues, business partners). It is a framework that helps clients identify unhealthy patterns, build deeper emotional intimacy, and develop effective communication and relational skills. Unlike traditional therapy, RLT works quickly and pragmatically to shift mindsets and behaviors, fostering accountability and growth.
