The truth is We’re not born knowing how to communicate.
We all know good communication is essential for healthy relationships, but most of us grow up without the benefit of role models who show us what it looks like to communicate effectively in relationships. And if we’re not lucky enough to learn these skills at home, we’re not likely to learn them anywhere else.
That’s where Relationship Communication 101 comes in.

It’s never too late to learn how to communicate effectively
Good communication is at the very heart of any thriving relationship. Emotional intimacy, physical intimacy, that sense of togetherness you want, emotional connection … all of these depend on good communication.
If you missed out on learning healthy communication because you didn't have any good role models when you were growing up — it’s not too late.
In our work with hundreds of people, we’ve seen time and time again the tremendous improvements you can make when you take time to learn how to communicate better.
The two biggest communication roadblocks
In our experience, there are very specific roadblocks to communication that happen when we have a difficult childhood.
There are two very common patterns of communication problems that happen in intimate relationships, as a result of childhood trauma or a lack of positive communication in our childhood home.
The first is an inability to address issues that need to be talked about, because of a fear of rocking the boat.
The second is a difficulty being able to communicate vulnerably and authentically (i.e., to speak from the heart).
These are both skills that can be learned. And as they’re learned, the possibility for more intimacy and closeness opens up in an entirely new way.
Good communication isn’t rocket science.
But it’s not intuitive either.
It’s learned.
We brought our combined 40 years of training in communication skills into creating Relationship Communication 101.
We’ll take you through a 6-week, step-by-step process of understanding how to improve your communication, with lots of opportunities to practice new communication skills and to ask us questions about the real-life situations you encounter, as you go through the program.

The Secret to True Communication

Authenticity, Empathy, and Connection

You’ll also explore the three core components of empathy, helping you understand your partner more deeply and see the world from their perspective.

Week Five
Having the Hard Conversations
Learn why difficult conversations are not only inevitable in long-term relationships, but can also become opportunities for deeper connection and growth.
You’ll explore how to approach these conversations as an ongoing process rather than one-time solutions, and how to understand the underlying needs, values, and goals that shape conflict—so you can move through challenges in ways that bring you closer.

about us
We help those with painful childhood experiences heal their relationship with themselves, deepen their connection with others, and learn the skills for having fulfilling relationships.
We created the Five Relationship Archetypes and the Relationship Yes! Test to help people better understand themselves and their patterns in relationships.
Our work also includes the Ask Angela relationship advice column and podcast, as well as the Alchemy of Connection podcast.
We founded the Institute for Trauma Informed Relationships where we offer certification and consultation provide therapists and coaches in trauma informed relationship counseling.
Angela Amias, LCSW
Fulfilling relationships are an essential part of living a good life. Yet, many of us (perhaps even most of us) have core wounds from childhood experiences that affect our ability to have the kinds of intimate relationships in adulthood that we long to have.
As a licensed therapist, I’ve worked with hundreds of individuals and couples to help them heal past trauma and create more meaningful, satisfying relationships with themselves and with intimate partners.
Alongside Daniel, I developed the Five Relationship Archetypes as a model that reflects the different ways that childhood relationship trauma impacts our adult relationships.
This model takes into account our unique and inborn temperaments as well as the kinds of messages we internalize during childhood — about ourselves and how we need to be in order to have relationships with others. And, more importantly, it lays out a path toward healing, by first helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself that you lost along the way … parts that weren’t accepted or safe to express when you were growing up.
It’s my belief that difficult experiences break us open to become more of who we are meant to be.
As a trauma survivor myself, and as a therapist, I’ve made it my mission to walk alongside others as you find your path toward healing and discovering a life of more meaning and joy.
I’ve been featured in a range of publications, including Today, Oprah, Cosmopolitan, Well + Good, The Independent, Salon, Inc., Forbes, Toronto Sun, Women’s Health, and Refinery29.
Daniel Boscaljon, PHD
The most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one you have with yourself.
It’s also true that your connections with others can never be better than your relationship with yourself, which is why healing painful or traumatic experiences from childhood is such a vital part of having meaningful, satisfying relationships in adulthood.
My own personal search for how to cultivate a meaningful life came after years of feeling disconnected from others and from myself.
Though I entered graduate school focused on the intellectual aspects of earning a PhD in Religious Studies (and then another one in English), I discovered along the way how to use what I learned to repair the inner fractures of my own life.
As I reconnected with myself, I found that I was better able to connect with others as well.
With over twenty years of experience working with individuals, I focus on translating theories of love into practical guidance that helps you create meaningful, fulfilling relationships.
I’ve presented internationally on the topics of love and intimacy, and have been interviewed in publications including NBC News, Newsweek, Harper’s Bazaar, MindBodyGreen, Forbes, Salon, FastCompany, Business Insider, and Verywell Mind.
