Clarity and Confidence towards the Future of your Marriage.
You’re stuck in painful patterns—resentment, distance, or conflict—with no clear way out.
You’re torn between staying and leaving, fearing both regret and the unknown.
Questions keep circling in your mind:
Is this just a rough season, or is it the beginning of the end?
Can we actually change—or will it always be like this?
If I stay, will I lose myself? If I go, will I regret it?
What about our kids—will they be better off if we stay together, or apart?
Conversations go nowhere—someone shuts down, gets defensive, or nothing changes.
You worry about your future, your finances, and your family, while guilt and exhaustion weigh you down.
You still care. You still hope. But you’re not sure how much longer you can keep going like this—or what the right decision really is.
Discernment Counseling is designed for couples quietly asking, “Are we done?”
Discernment Counseling is a short-term, structured approach for couples on the brink of separation who are unsure whether to:
Try to restore the marriage to health
Move toward separation or divorce
Take a structured pause and decide later
Unlike traditional couples therapy, the goal isn’t to solve your relationship problems right away—it’s to determine whether those problems are solvable.
How It Works
You’ll attend sessions together, but much of the work happens in one-on-one conversations with your therapist. Why? Because you're starting from different emotional places—and that needs space.
The leaning-out partner gets support without pressure or blame
The leaning-in partner gets tools to show up with clarity and groundedness
Both partners are invited to reflect on their own contributions to the dynamic
Whether you choose to stay together or separate, the insights you gain here will support your emotional growth and future relationships.
The Goal: Clarity and Confidence
By the end of the process, you’ll have a clearer understanding of your relationship’s dynamics, your options, and what your next step needs to be—together or apart. There are no “bad guys” here. Just two people seeking clarity in a moment that matters.
Imagine if you…
Could acknowledge the fear of choosing between couples therapy and divorce and have the right space to make that decision.
Experienced a judgement- free zone to explore the decision to divorce or repair a marriage.
Learned new and profound insights to explore your own contribution to the marriage issues. Knowledge is power.
Shifted into a state of clarity and confidence around how to respond to the marriage distress.
