What is RLT?
Relational Life Therapy (RLT) is a therapeutic approach designed to repair and strengthen relationships by addressing power struggles, communication breakdowns, and unresolved hurts.
Developed by Terry Real, RLT dives deep into how you and your loved ones interact, offering practical tools to shift those dynamics.
RLT is unique for its blend of honesty, accountability, and actionable change—cutting through relational chaos to foster intimacy and respect.
