Same mission. A bigger tomorrow.
Two days that can change the next twenty years with your adult child. In person with Catherine Hickem, LCSW, Bill and Tracey Robison, and a room full of parents who understand.
Only 50 seats · intentionally limited
For most of this journey you've done the work at home, on a screen, often alone. This is the weekend that changes that.
Connect, Grow & Thrive Live is two full days in one room with Catherine, Bill and Tracey, and parents from across the PACT community. The P.A.R.E.N.T. Method taught in full. Workshops where you choose your track. Table groups, a guided release, open Q&A, and a personal 90-day plan you write before you leave.
In June 2026, PACT families gathered at The Waterstone in Boca Raton for the first Connect, Grow & Thrive Live. February 2027 is our second year, and we intend to make it our best one yet. Together.
You are not doing anything wrong. You've just never been handed the right framework.
Parenting an adult is a different relationship than parenting a child. It requires a different framework, one almost no one is taught. This weekend is what comes after everything else hasn't worked.
Parents carrying a strained or distant relationship with an adult child. Couples ready to do the work side by side. And the therapists who walk this road with families every day.
You've tried the conversations, the therapy, the books. You're ready for a framework that actually holds, and the inner work that goes with it.
When one parent is doing the work and the other isn't, the whole effort stalls. The United Front track gets you pulling in the same direction.
Clinicians who sit with estranged families. A clinician-only roundtable with Catherine and the P.A.R.E.N.T. Method clinical companion guide.
You'll sit beside parents who understand the silence, the missed holidays, the carefully worded texts. No explaining needed. No judgment offered.
Every session comes back to the question the P.A.R.E.N.T. Method starts with: what is inside your control, and what will you do with it?
Not a promise of reconciliation. A clear, practical picture of your next right step, and the steadiness to take it when you get home.
The P.A.R.E.N.T. Method, taught step by step. The same framework that has guided thousands of parents through reconnection.
Practical language and skills for the next hard conversation, so you stop repeating the pattern that hasn't been working.
The United Front protocol, so you and your partner stop quietly working against each other.
Two days in the company of people who know exactly what you've been carrying. You are not the only one.
Your exact next steps, written down. A plan you can execute the Monday after.
Grounded in a framework that works, not in wishful thinking. The kind of hope that holds on a Tuesday in November.
Two days learning from people who have walked this work with thousands of parents.
Catherine has spent over forty years as a psychotherapist — she's a Licensed Clinical Social Worker — and more than twenty as a family and executive coach, sitting with families in their hardest moments.
She also lived it. Twenty years of distance with her own father ended in reconciliation, and that experience is why the P.A.R.E.N.T. Method starts where it does: not with what your adult child needs to change, but with what's inside your control.
Bill co-leads PACT's couples program, The United Front, which helps parents get aligned as a team before they ever re-engage their adult child. He speaks plainly to the reality most couples recognize but rarely name: when one parent is doing the work and the other isn't, the whole effort stalls.
Tracey brings a parent's perspective and hard-earned wisdom on marriage, parenting, and what it looks like to show up as a unified couple through the hardest seasons of family life. She speaks with the warmth of someone who has sat where you sit, and the clarity of someone who has found a way through.
Teaching, practice, reflection, and real conversation. Generous breaks. Lunch both days. A welcome dinner for VIP guests.
Times subject to minor changes. Business casual. Bring a light layer for the conference room and a specific situation you'd like help thinking through.
Two days of this work deserves a room you actually want to spend them in. The Waterstone sits on the Intracoastal in Boca Raton. Waterfront, elevated, quietly welcoming.

On top of two days in the room with Catherine, Bill and Tracey.
I have gotten some wonderful new tools… It begins with me. I was gifted to have them and now, through your work, this gift can be opened again and again. It was shut because I shut it.
My biggest win has been becoming much more aware of my own thoughts, reactions, and the role I play in my relationships. I'm learning to pause before I respond, respect boundaries, and focus on what I can control.
It was so empowering and encouraging… It's giving me courage to get ready to have a conversation with my daughter.
Shared by parents in the PACT program. Results vary.
Two days in a room built for this. A framework that holds. A plan you walk out with. And the quiet relief of sitting among people who understand, without having to explain a thing.
