Dolores Kokinos of ABC Solutions works to help people achieve conflict resolution. She says the key is to develop a “loving relationship with yourself.” She compares it to how one must first get the mask on in an airline crisis before helping others.

Kokinos says a lack of confidence and second-guessing one's self are often behind relationship conflicts. For anyone to feel secure, she points to basic building blocks that must exist in harmony. She teaches a 6-week course going over these issues, saying her own personal struggle of being a single parent after divorce prompted her to delve into these matters.
