Is One Hour a Week Marriage Counseling Best for Couples in Crisis?
Most couples who are in crisis need more help than one hour a week Marriage Counseling can provide. With one hour a week Marriage Counseling, much of the progress can be torn down in-between sessions. Many times a relationship is too fragile to wait the weeks in-between one hour sessions.
Since most issues can't be resolved in an hour, couples can merely open up old wounds and walk away feeling even more hopeless than before the session. This leaves hurting couples discouraged and vulnerable. With local one hour a week Marriage Counseling, often, by the time couples are just getting to the root of one of their issues--it's time to stop the session.
If you were to need heart surgery, would you want your Cardiologist to do it "a little bit each week?" Our Christian Marriage Counseling is for couples who need to stop the pain now! Once this kind of "major surgery" has been accomplished, staying on a good path is much more do-able.
The Marriage Intensive Approach For Couples in Crisis
The type of Christian Marriage Counseling we provide is called a "Marriage Intensive". A Marriage Intensive is a private 3, 4 or 5 day in-depth Christian Marriage Counseling experience, individually designed to meet your specific relationship needs. You are not in a group, you and your spouse meet privately with your Counselor.
Marriage Intensives allow enough time for each spouse to be fully heard and understood, and allows the uninterrupted time needed to resolve accumulated issues.
To date, 95% of couples who are open and willing during their Marriage Intensive leave totally committed to their marriage. This is true even when there has been infidelity or when couples are separated.
During a Marriage Intensive couples are able to address most of the issues causing them pain and conflict. Couples learn and practice powerful tools that will help keep them on track. Also to help you stay on track, we offer 3 months of free phone counseling. We care about you after you leave.
Marriage Intensives are for couples who might be in such a mess they don't have time to wait for one hour a week Marriage Counseling to chisel away at their mountain of pain. Marriage Intensives are ideal for the busy professional who would rather get to the root of issues quickly--rather than take off work for several months for one hour a week Christian Marriage Counseling.
Marriage Intensives give couples the ultimate in focus and privacy. It allows couples to escape the distractions of work, children, chores, computer and TV, so that spouses can give their undivided attention to each other--and to healing their marriage.
Spouses who will not commit to six months to a year of one hour a week Christian Marriage Counseling are often-times more open to consider a brief 3 - 5 Day format.
A Marriage Intensive is ideal for couples who are not sure they want to stay together and want to give it one last try before they make a final decision.
Experience shows that having no loving feelings for each other, or even feeling completely hopeless about your situation is NOT the determiner of the outcome of your Marriage Intensive. When you come with a willing spirit, expect a miracle--because that's what we witness all the time.
