The Relationship Reset

A 12-Week Online Relationship Coaching Program Based on Relational Life Therapy

Stop Having the Same Arguments. Start Building the Relationship You Both Deserve.

Are you tired of having the same disagreements with your partner, feeling misunderstood, or wondering why conversations that start out small turn into arguments that never seem to get resolved?

Maybe one of you shuts down while the other becomes frustrated. Maybe you feel more like roommates than romantic partners. Or perhaps you still love each other but don't know how to break the unhealthy patterns that keep pushing you apart.

The Relationship Reset is a 12-week, self-paced online couples coaching program designed to help you communicate more effectively, understand your relationship patterns, rebuild emotional connection, and create lasting change.

Developed by Richie Pryor, MA, LMHC, Certified Relational Life Therapist and owner of Cape Cod Couples Counseling Clinic, this program brings practical relationship skills directly into your home.

You don't need to wait until your relationship reaches a breaking point to begin making changes.

Practical Skills. Real Change. A Stronger Us.

Why Do Couples Keep Having the Same Arguments?

Most couples don't struggle because they don't love each other. They struggle because they've developed unhealthy ways of communicating, protecting themselves, and responding to conflict.

Perhaps you recognize some of these patterns:

One partner pursues a conversation while the other withdraws or shuts down.
Small disagreements escalate into criticism, defensiveness, or blame.
You struggle to express your needs without your partner becoming upset.
Unresolved resentment has created emotional or physical distance.
You find yourselves arguing about money, parenting, chores, or intimacy.
You want to feel closer but don't know how to reconnect.

Over time, these patterns can leave both partners feeling frustrated, lonely, and disconnected.

The good news is that relationship skills can be learned and practiced.

The Relationship Reset helps couples stop focusing exclusively on what their partner is doing wrong and start recognizing the behaviors they can change themselves.

What Makes The Relationship Reset Different?

Many couples spend years trying to solve the same relationship problems without understanding why their efforts aren't working.

The Relationship Reset takes a different approach.

Rather than simply teaching you communication techniques, the program helps you understand the emotional and behavioral patterns underneath your relationship struggles.

Grounded in principles of Relational Life Therapy (RLT), developed by Terry Real, the program teaches couples to recognize their losing strategies, understand their adaptive child, develop their Wise Adult, and practice relational accountability.

Learn how to take accountability, express your needs without attacking your partner, and listen without immediately becoming defensive.

Practice communication skills that help both partners feel heard, understood, and respected.

Weeks 7–9: Rebuild Trust, Connection, and Intimacy

Explore healthy boundaries, learn how to repair after disagreements, and understand the connection between emotional safety and intimacy.

Who Is The Relationship Reset For?

This online relationship coaching program may be a good fit for couples who:

Love each other but struggle to communicate effectively.
Keep having the same arguments without resolving them.
Feel emotionally disconnected or more like roommates.
Want to rebuild trust and improve intimacy.
Struggle with criticism, defensiveness, resentment, or withdrawal.
Want to strengthen their marriage before problems become more serious.
Prefer the flexibility of a self-paced online relationship course.
Are willing to examine their own behaviors and practice new skills.

Whether you've been together for two years or twenty, learning how to communicate, take accountability, and reconnect can make a meaningful difference.

You can also benefit from learning many of these relationship skills individually, even if your partner isn't ready to participate, although the couples exercises are designed for two willing partners.

Meet Your Relationship Coach, Richie Pryor, MA, LMHC

Certified Relational Life Therapist and Owner of Cape Cod Couples Counseling Clinic

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Relational Life Therapist who specializes in helping couples navigate communication problems, relationship conflict, emotional disconnection, and intimacy challenges.

In my work with couples, I've seen how easy it is for two people who love each other to become trapped in unhealthy relationship patterns.

One partner may feel constantly criticized, while the other feels unheard or abandoned.

Both may desperately want connection, yet their attempts to protect themselves create more distance.

I created The Relationship Reset to make practical relationship skills more accessible to couples who want to improve their relationships.

My goal is to help you recognize the patterns keeping you stuck, develop greater personal accountability, and learn how to show up as a healthier, more relational partner.

You can't control your partner, but you can learn to change how you show up in your relationship.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Relationship Reset

Is The Relationship Reset the same as couples therapy?

No. The Relationship Reset is a self-paced relationship education and coaching program grounded in Relational Life Therapy principles. It is designed to teach practical relationship skills and does not replace individualized couples therapy, mental health treatment, or crisis support.

Do both partners need to participate?

The program is designed for couples who are willing to learn and practice together. However, individuals can benefit from learning how their own behaviors, emotional reactions, and communication patterns influence their relationships.

How long does the program take?

The program includes 12 weekly lessons, generally designed for approximately 30–40 minutes each, plus time for worksheets and exercises. You can move through the material at your own pace.

Can this program help us stop having the same arguments?

The program teaches you how to recognize recurring conflict patterns, identify losing strategies, regulate emotional reactions, and communicate more effectively. Progress depends on how consistently partners practice the skills and on their particular relationship circumstances.

What if we have experienced infidelity or betrayal?

Some of the communication and accountability skills may be helpful, but significant betrayal, ongoing dishonesty, or serious trust injuries may require individualized couples therapy or additional professional support.

Is this course appropriate for every relationship?

No. The program is not designed to address domestic violence, coercive control, intimidation, or situations where partners cannot safely express themselves. In those circumstances, seek appropriate individualized support rather than attempting joint exercises that could increase risk.

Do we need to live in Massachusetts to enroll?

No, Because The Relationship Reset is a prerecorded educational program rather than psychotherapy, it is intended for couples learning relationship skills online. If you decide to participate in my Connection Sessions those are classified as Relationship Coaching and not therapy. However, I am licensed in the state of MA and FL.
