1 in 2 marriages end in divorce in the United States and while not every marriage can (or should) be saved, there are plenty of couples advocating the use of couples therapy to work through their problems. Marriage counseling can help couples understand and resolve conflicts and accept and respect opposing viewpoints. Couples that haven’t experienced marriage counseling often don’t know what to expect, and write off the process before attempting to see if it will work for them.
In this workshop, Melissa reveals her own experiences with marriage counseling to help demystify the process and help you come to a decision if it’s right for you.
Learn:
How to choose a therapist (and why it’s ok to consult with more than one)
Why attending individual therapy sessions is beneficial to your relationship
Why you may not ‘love’ your partner the way they want to receive love
A simple way to revive the excitement in your relationship through date nights
Why even therapy won’t make your marriage ‘perfect’ (and why that’s ok)
