Licensed bench

21 clinicians trained in RDX

10 years of work. 3 clinics, and coming near you.

The RDX mat: power, vulnerability, connection, and disconnection around a center circle.

The mat

Only balance

The whole model fits on a mat. Power at the top. Vulnerability at the bottom. Connection and Disconnection on the sides. A circle near the center is Dynamic Intimacy.

The four corners are Dramatic Disconnects. They present as bullying, defiance, neediness, and shutdown. Those are positions, never people. No good, no bad. Only balance.

Two scales. Four corners. One center.

Connection is healthy when it is available on demand, like plugging in an appliance. Vulnerability is standing beside the waterfall, not under it. Power is chosen and situational, not taken and constant. Disconnection is a safety tool. Touch a hot stove and it is instant and correct.

Five steps everyone doesthem out loud.

Because the language is shared and blame-free, a room full of people can read the balance without anyone being accused of anything.

Step one

Identify your position. Where am I right now on both scales?

Step two

Choose a relationship. Position is always relative to someone.

Step three

Fixed or fluid. Can I move, or am I stuck?

Step four

Read the balance. What are the others doing to compensate for where I stand?

Step five

Adjust and observe. A small, deliberate move — then watch what the system does.

If you lead a system, this is for you.

Anywhere you have a relationship, that relationship can be made better if you understand the system you’re in. RDX turns that understanding into a repeatable practice — not a one-time training event.

From the couch to the court to the living room.

RDX is taught spatially. People stand on the mat and move. It works for people who will never sit on a couch. It also gives couples and families who have already tried talking a way to show their system what they feel instead of telling it again.

Positions, never people.

The four corners of the mat are Dramatic Disconnects. Anyone can visit a corner. Trouble starts when a corner hardens into a role.

Bullying

A position of power and connection. Not a person.

Defiance

A position of power and disconnection. Not a person.

Neediness

A position of vulnerability and connection. Not a person.

Shutdown

A position of vulnerability and disconnection. Not a person.

Notice, then refer.

Anyone who is not a licensed clinician learns a bounded role. When a position is fixed — someone cannot move away from vulnerability, into power, or toward connection — that usually points to something deeper. Connections’ RDX-trained, trauma-informed clinicians take it from there.

We’ve seen it work over and over. A Q4 micro-purchase is how most organizations try it before they sign up for a pilot.

Christopher D. Adams, LMFT, speaking
Together

What people discover on the mat.

You can move.

Fluidity is the key to a good relationship — both people being fluid and working together to meet each other’s needs.

Lecture attendee

Listening and fixing are different.

A big takeaway was how effective communication depends on truly understanding the other person, not just waiting to respond.

Lecture attendee

Opposites serve the system.

I never thought about the people I attract as an opposite I was drawing in because of balance. It made a lot of sense.

Lecture attendee

Know your center.

My biggest takeaway is knowing which corner I’m most comfortable in — and which ones I have a harder time going into.

Lecture attendee

Once you see it.

The visual demonstration with the mat on the floor really helped me grasp the concept. It let me think deeper about my strengths and weaknesses in each position.

Lecture attendee

Keep dancing.

Learning to be fluid in each corner is great advice. A relationship is like a waltz: you have to dance together, and stepping on each other’s toes may happen. You can’t give up.

Lecture attendee

Open to all four corners.

A relationship is based on fluidity. We have to be open to all four corners. That is how we thrive.

Lecture attendee

No good, no bad. Only balance.

The idea that the facilitator should not say what is right and wrong, but focus on the dynamic when sorting out conflict — I gained a lot from that.
