OCO Webinar: Intimacy & Connection in the Caregiver-Partner Relationship
May 9 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EDT
Caregiving changes so much in how we experience life and our familial relationships. In this webinar, we will explore the shifts that occur in the dynamics of intimate partner relationships. Often the general caregiving challenges overshadow the deeper relationship needs between the caregiver and care recipient. In observance of Mental Health Week this May, join Michal Goldstein, a registered social worker, and explore how caregivers can manage some of the challenges that arise within this shifting dynamic, including:
- Feelings of isolation and guilt
- Changes in intimacy
- Feelings of disinterest in the relationship
- Tools to regain connection and intimacy
