About this event

  • 1 day 18 hours

Presented primarily from the internationally acclaimed research of Dr. John Gottman and filtered through God's Word for marriage, this workshop offers something for a man and woman in any phase of marriage, whether contemplating engagement or married 50 years! If a couple's relationship is strong, this workshop will provide them with tools and insights to make their relationship even better. If a couple has a distressed relationship, this workshop can provide a road map for repair! Couples with a biblical worldview will gain insight on how to live out God's Word for marriage in specific, practical and very REAL ways!

A bonus is that many of the principles and strategies work within other relationships, like family members or co-workers. If you are wanting to learn how to communicate better and manage conflicting opinions better with other people, this is the workshop for you! We are also doing a spotlight on parenting at the end of this weekend!

OPTIONAL: Parenting spotlight on Sunday from 2:00 to 3:30pm.


Dress casually and comfortably! Snacks and coffee will be provided throughout the weekend but lunch on Saturday will be on your own (you can also bring your lunch and eat in). Many people like to bring their own water bottles as well. This is a WORKshop but it has light, humorous moments as well. Come ready to learn, work and have fun!

The weekend consists of teaching and skill practice. The "what", "how" and "why" of each skill/principle is taught in the large group and then there will be a break out session for you and your spouse/partner to work (privately) on it. Although questions are welcome, you will not be required to share personal/private info in the group. A box with 3x5 cards will be available for anyone who might have a question and want to keep it anonymous. Jeff and Kathy will also be available to answer questions and provide direction during break out sessions.


For questions, please contact Kathy at kathy4counseling@gmail.com

Organized by

Point B is a coaching and counseling, husband and wife team dedicated to helping people find their way through changing and/or difficult life circumstances and phases .   Kathy Shenk is a licensed marriage and family therapist  and licensed mental health counselor, and Jeff  Shenk is a  licensed mental health counselor associate, professional mediator/ life coach and life recovery coach.  “Helping Navigate Your Journey” expresses their desire to assist their clients in not only coming up with their destination, or “Point B”  (what they want to see happen/change, where  they want to go, what goals they want to accomplish, what their ideal end result will be, etc.), but to also look at where they are, their “Point A”, to determine what strengths they have to help with the journey, and what challenges / barriers they will need to address or overcome in order to get to their destination (the positive outcome).  Both Jeff and Kathy then work with clients to come up with a plan or “map” for navigating the road between their Point A and Point B, sometimes making stops, detours, or shortcuts along the way!

Although Jeff and Kathy have independent practices, they are both Gottman Educators who present marriage workshops as a team. They work within the community providing  psycho-educational classes and they accept speaking engagements individually or as a couple for organizations and churches as well.

Jeff and Kathy both run their practices from a biblical worldview.  This means that although the tools, helps, education and resources they offer can support people from many faiths or no faith, they have a personal commitment to live and work from a Scriptural perspective.   For their clients of Christian faith, they  are also able to offer a spiritual emphasis and support that cannot be found in secular counseling and coaching.
