Happy Birthday to my favourite human 🧡✨

Chris, you are my calm in the storm, my co-captain on this wild and beautiful journey, and the one who still makes me laugh when I least expect it.

From therapy rooms to life’s big moments, you show up with intelligence, integrity, and such steady heart. You lead with wisdom, care deeply, and bring a quiet strength that makes everything feel possible.

I feel so grateful that we get to build this life together – supporting others, growing ourselves, and always finding our way back to each other.

Here’s to you, to us, and to many more adventures ahead 🥂

Love you always 💛
Cutie Pi 💕🥰

Stop Talking About the Problem. Start Talking To the Part.

Ever felt that heavy silence in the therapy room? Your client understands why they are stuck, but the Vaded pain just won't move. You’re talking to the "Reporter State," but the part that holds the trauma isn't listening.

It’s time to move from "Insight" to "Resolution."

Resource Therapy (RT) provides the 15 Clinical Actions you need to bypass the noise and bridge directly to the source. Whether you're a Psychologist, Counsellor, or Coach, RT is the "Operating System" that makes your existing tools—EMDR, CBT, or Somatic work—run deeper and faster.

Our 2026 Training Calendar is now LIVE:
✅ Foundation & Clinical Qualification: Master the 8 Pathologies.
✅ Advanced & Train the Trainer: Step into leadership.
✅ The Bali Immersion: Deep-state learning in paradise.

Don't stay Vaded in Hesitation. Join the global elite of Resource Therapists and trade clinical frustration for surgical precision.

Choose each other again.

Even good relationships lose their rhythm sometimes.

Work, stress, misunderstandings, old hurts.
Slowly the connection that once felt effortless becomes harder to find.

The truth is most couples are not lacking love.
They are lacking the tools to talk in a way that helps them feel safe, heard and understood.

This is exactly what we teach in the Getting the Love You Want Couples Workshop.

Over two powerful days you will learn the dialogue process developed through Imago Relationship Therapy – a structured way of communicating that helps partners truly hear each other again.

Couples often tell us they leave the workshop feeling calmer, closer and more hopeful about their future together.

22–23 August 2026
Crows Nest, Sydney

Led by psychologists
Philipa Thornton & Chris Paulin

WHO’S HOLDING THE SPACE FOR YOU?

When you step into this workshop, you’re not just learning tools.You’re being guided by two people who have spent decades helping couples untangle conflict and rebuild connection — and who also sit on the other side of the dialogue chairs themselves.

Philipa brings deep psychological insight, clarity, and a steady therapeutic presence. Chris brings over four decades of clinical wisdom, warmth, and grounded experience.

Together, they blend professional mastery with lived partnership. Not theory from a distance — but practices they continue to use in their own marriage. 💛

You’ll be supported, gently challenged, and carefully guided every step of the way.

You’ve probably seen the name… but what actually happens in this workshop?
Here’s what couples tell us after the weekend:
✨ “We finally understood why we keep having the same argument.”
✨ “I felt heard without being interrupted.”
✨ “We remembered we’re on the same team.”

This isn’t group therapy. It’s guided, step-by-step conversations with the one person who matters most — your partner. You won’t be asked to disclose private details to the room. You’ll be supported to have the conversations you’ve been trying (and struggling) to have at home.

And you’ll be in experienced hands with Philipa and Chris — combining deep clinical insight with decades of real-world relationship work.

If you’re not in crisis but know your relationship deserves more depth, safety, and connection… this is your space.

WHO’S ON DECK TUESDAY? 💔🛡

Ever snapped gone quiet
or turned everything into a joke

Then later thought
What on earth was that

In Resource Therapy we often see two inner crew members behind those moments

💔 The Hurting Heart part
Feels rejected
Not chosen
Not enough

🛡 The Bodyguard part
Gets loud
Busy
Sarcastic
Angry
Or just checks out

The Bodyguard is not trying to ruin your life
It is trying to shield your Hurting Heart

So instead of
“I am a terrible person”

Try
“That was my Bodyguard on deck trying to protect my Hurting Heart”

Today’s check in

Who is on deck for you right now

Hurting Heart
Bodyguard
Or both taking turns

👇 Comment with
💔 if your Hurting Heart feels close
🛡 if your Bodyguard has been working overtime
Or share your own name for these two parts of your inner cre

Chris and I first attended Getting the Love You Want as a couple, wanting to communicate better and feel closer. It slowed us down, helped us truly listen, and changed our relationship.

Now we’re honoured to guide other couples through the same transformative experience.

Many couples wait until things feel unbearable before reaching for help.
But the strongest work often happens before crisis, when commitment is still there, and both partners want something to change.
