Learn how to reduce defensiveness, help others accept what you have to say and find solutions that work for everyone. When problems come up, shift into the communication mode and find peaceful resolution.

To learn these skills, those who attend can practice communicating about non-threatening issues. No one will be embarrassed or stressed.

Everyone from older teens up can learn and use this approach. Participants do not have to have a partner to participate in the exercises.

Comments on the "How to Be Understood" approach from Bill's counseling practice.

·         "Bill, since seeing you, whenever we disagree my husband and I shift into the communication mode you taught us and solve our problems without anger or stress. Our marriage is stronger now." -- Angela W.

·         "When my children are upset, I immediately begin to use the communication skills I learned from you. As a result my children feel much more secure and loved. And that promotes a calmer, more cooperative home." --Katie S.

 "I tried your approach on my boss. He's been much more friendly and interested in my point of view." -- John D.
