Depending on your situation there are a few things that might be able to break through the silence.

1. It may require a change in approach. If there are qualities about how you interact with your spouse that don’t encourage open communication we may need to help you adjust some of those habits

2. It may need some calculated space. Sometimes if a spouse is really pulling back, it may be beneficial to give them the space they are asking for. Knowing when to do this and how though without it backfiring are going to be essential for this to be effective.

3. It may require personal changes. Your mindset, or how you think and feel, have huge impacts on the atmosphere and tone in any given interaction. At times simply changing the way you view the relationship may produce the result you are looking for.

We can help you figure out what the right method is in order to open up the lines of communication, even when they are nearly completely closed off.

Most of the time this comes about because they are trying to justify a potentially difficult and painful decision. 

It isn’t easy to put aside a relationship that has lasted for years and the more they can feel good about leaving you, the easier it becomes. This is why benign and innocent actions are seen, at time, in a negative light.

 

BUT, this doesn’t mean there isn’t a way to fix this. There are things you can say and do that will help break down the negative narrative they have built up about you. Ways to introduce some doubt into their decision to leave. 

Most people don’t know how to work this technique because most of the time it isn’t necessary, but when someone is thinking about leaving, it is critical you start doing it right away.

We realize that if things aren’t going well in your marriage, the situation warrants more attention and more effort.

That is why we offer one on one sessions, twice weekly group sessions, workshop material, homework assignments and unlimited email support. We want to give you all the resources, tools and skills you need to succeed.

Beyond that our approach combines the good parts of traditional counseling (an objective point of view, insightful questioning, and an expert knowledge of the subject) with more of a guiding hand.

We ALWAYS give actionable steps to take with every one of your concerns, we focus EVERYTHING on marriage and relationship problems which means we have detailed plans on how to fix just about any problem, and unlike traditional counseling, we have specific overarching plans on how to go from any problem to a thriving marriage.
