You know, forty percent of couples that get divorced regret it later.

And that's often because second and third marriages have a higher rate of failure because people just make the same mistakes over and over and over without changing anything.

And in my experience

Most people and I think I'm guilty of this too, I think we all are in some ways, we tend to blame other people for our problems and not look inward.

And so if you're saying, Well, my partner is so defensive and they they can't accept criticism

Well, does anyone like getting criticism?

That's kind of a weird thing to say.

And so you know, changing how you speak to them will change their response.

And you know, what I tell couples is that when you work with me, your marriage is my client.

And if either of you act in a way that hurts the marriage, I'm gonna hold you accountable to that in real time and do your best to try to fix it, you know, with my my assistance and my coaching.

It's intensive, that's what it feels like.

Um, it's basically one year of therapy in in three or four days.

So each day is is about three hours.

Um I I used to do an afternoon session, but people were so cooked after doing three hours of intensive therapy.

And it's essentially one on one.

I work with one couple at a time.

And so you're you're in the spotlight the entire time.

And you know, as you can imagine, the first day is a mix of intake along with, you know, um some coaching and teaching on my part.

I started during the pandemic actually, I started giving people an online course before they show up.

Because it was there's just so much to get to in our time that it just it was much more efficient for people to do a little bit of work, pre work before they show up.
