Within My Reach is based on up-to-date research in communication, conflict management, affect regulation, commitment, expectations, intimacy enhancement, emotional safety, and physical safety. Within My Reach additionally focuses on the impact of romantic relationships on children.

Couples are not allowed to attend Within My Reach (WMR) together. You don’t have to be in a relationship, you could be just leaving a bad relationship or looking to a future relationship. WMR does not assume that there is an existing, committed relationship, or that the participant definitely wants to stay in the relationship.

The focus of WMR is on making good choices in romantic relationships that are safe and healthy for adults and their children.
