Relationship Therapy Options (7)
The article below contains a few sweeping generalizations within it that hold true in most cases. I wouldn’t for a moment claim that all men or women act out a particular gender role. I would however say that in my marriage counselling I’ve found some assumptions can be very useful. This article has already changed lives, my editors understanding of men improved and she quickly eliminated one of the biggest mistakes she was making around the men in her life. And she wasn’t even looking for marriage counselling. I hope you enjoy it, let me know. One of the…
Twenty years ago I was in a relationship with a woman I dearly loved and it was terrible. We'd spend hours, if not days, trying to figure out if we were really meant to be together. We used to argue in ways I really wasn't proud of and said some truly horrible things to each other. At the suggestion of a well meaning friend we went to an established organisation for marriage counselling. At our counsellors insistence we both worked hard at mastering conflict management, found new and interesting ways to be 'totally honest' with each other and within…

What this therapy is not... It's not traditional counselling. Whoever thought that sitting next to your partner sharing the things you hate about them and then hearing the same vitriol back from your partner was going to help your relationship?! Practically the only differences between traditional counselling and your normal arguments is that you have someone watching you do it, it's done at a lower volume and you get longer to think about how bad it feels for you! I know it didn't work for me and I'm pretty sure it won't work for you either. The truth for a…
I really want relationships to work, I want them to be places that we can enjoy being in. This is why I went all the way to Boston for my marriage counselling training. I want relationships to be the best thing about our lives rather than the largest source of pain. As a result I was recently having a conversation with a fellow marriage counselling student and she shared something with me that I found to be blinding in its brilliance. It's something that puts the pain and frustration that we all experience from time to time in our…
Have you or anyone you know ever thought about getting marriage counselling? In the past 20 years I’ve worked with enough couples to know that a home can often turn into a place of high drama and stress rather than the refuge it used to be. Marriage problems or even problems in a long term relationship tend to show up in some predictable ways. Sometimes a couple can’t remember the last time they had great sex. In fact, they’re not having fun of any kind together anymore. Their negative memories start to outweigh the positive ones in such a…
