Course Description
Welcome to “Relationship Psychology: How to Analyse People You Date”. This course was written for many of you who are dating, dated in the past, will be dating soon again, or who wants to learn about the psychology of dating and relationships as a part of your self-development and learning.
Many people end up in relationships that are dysfunctional and that make them unhappy over the long-term. Many people get into relationships that turn abusive and toxic, after which an urgent counselling help is needed in order to recover and move on. Toxic relationships can be extremely difficult to get out of because of the complexity of emotional and behavioural patterns that keep them ‘stuck’.
With this course, I sincerely hope to make you aware of first signs and clues about the relationship you might be getting into well before it turns ‘not-workable’ for you. The sooner you understand this, the fewer chances you will be in the relationship you didn’t look for.
It’s almost a mystery to us how we end up in 'difficult', abusive or toxic relationships. When we go on a date, we see people that vary in their looks, behaviours and perceptions. Sometimes we get very attracted to them, and other times we are not. When we enter a relationship, we wholeheartedly believe 'he/she is the one you've been looking for such a long time'. Why then most relationships end up in separation? What do we need to know about dating behaviour and relationship issues before they become our serious dilemma? Let's learn about the psychology of dating and relationship here!

I relate to how she is breaking down the concepts of dating to understand the dynamics between a conventional dating experience.

Not finding it worthy
By André Luiz on 3/30/2024
This teacher tells me valuable insights on how to proceed when looking for someone and what to do when I find one and many more!! Congratulations!!

I am finding out stuff I don't know, since I don't know much about dating. Haven't had the opportunity to date, and definitely want to increase the chances.
By Yvette Pappalardo on 5/4/2023
This course should be a must-take for everyone before and during their dating process to provide the tools to communicate effectively early on in a clear manner. What is dating? What constitutes a healthy relationship, and what does not? Bravo to you again Elmira.
By Andrew Sticklen on 4/25/2023
Tons of great information, seems to be well researched which appeals to me! I got married during the time I watched this course and I will still find value in it, helping to identify and maintain those positive elements that brought us together in the first place!
By Samuel Steven Holt on 8/29/2022
Course is good. Some content could be a little better updated but overall it’s a good course. It offers a more scientific and empirical view of dating psychology. So unlike a lot of dating coaching courses which reinforce stereotypical views on the sexes, this is more emotionally healthy and objective in its presentation style. Overall it’s pretty professional and well-made.

The information is something that everyone should know and understand to develop wise decision making when looking for a companion.

too generalized, as a person that already goes to therapy, I already knew 90% of the things said in the course
By Charles Ituah on 11/15/2020
I have always been interested in Dating and Relationships. I was a bit apprehensive to buy the course at first but I realized that I needed the knowledge to support my certification in Child Psychology. Children and Adolescents need knowledge about dating and relationships as well
