Marisa T. Cohen Speaking Topics

  • The Science of Relationships and Finding Your Ideal Mate

    Relationship science has come a long way in the last half century, not only establishing itself as a science, but effectively generating several lines of research aimed to determine the underpinnings of universal human experiences such as attraction and love. This interactive workshop will focus on the factors we consider most important when looking for a potential mate. We will examine why people need interpersonal relationships, how they form, and what sometimes leads to their demise.

  • Communication: The Art of Sharing, Listening, and Understanding

    Have you ever felt like your romantic partner, friend, or coworker didn’t truly listen to, and understand you? Have you ever struggled to get your point across? Do you want to learn skills to make you a better communicator and partner? This workshop will look at the way in which we communicate with one another and how it can affect our relationships. You will learn useful tips for sharing and listening, as well as ways to strengthen your relationships- romantic and platonic. The science of relationships will be applied in a creative and interactive way, so that you can use the lessons to enhance your life.
