Life After The Break Course

The end of a relationship or marriage can be a difficult and painful experience.  It can leave you feeling confused, lonely and lacking in confidence in yourself and the future.  Feelings of betrayal, guilt or rejection are common.  Anger, sadness and confusion are often intense.  Moving forward can be hard when trust, self-confidence and self-esteem have been shaken.

In these eight weekly sessions we look at how relationships work and why they some- times go wrong.  We consider ways of managing our own needs as well as those of family and friends, and of increasing the skills and confidence needed to build new relationships in the future.  You will meet men and women in similar situations, have the chance to share experiences in a confidential group and make new friends.

This eight week course aims to:
• To help people understand and deal with the emotions and feelings they are experiencing.
• To increase understanding of how and why relationships begin and why they sometimes end.
• To help develop confidence and a better foundation for forming and sustaining future relationships.
• To provide an opportunity for people working through similar experiences to share and learn together.
