Your local church can be a great resource for you to ask questions and find some resources. We are working with several churches and they refer couples to our program where they can do an early intervention on their relationship at home and at their own pace. Plus, no waiting for an appointment.
One of the best experiences in life is to have a healthy and happy relationship.
Sometimes life takes the wind out of your sails and you seem to forget about that love you have between each other. When you struggle in your relationship and your partner says that "we need counseling" you probably need to resolve some issues. Start working on your relationship today at your own pace by downloading the relationship modules and doing it yourself.
There is a reason why in the United States people who are married have about a 50% chance of staying married. They do not identify the problem that they are having at home and intervene early enough to avoid more damage. Here are some reasons why people struggle with their marriage or partnership:
* No quality time together
* No intimacy
* Incompatibility: Not equal interest for intimacy
* Infidelity
* You will not go to counseling
* Uneven division of chores at home
* Drug or alcohol problems
* Money issues
* Lack of communication
If one of the partners can identify the problem in the relationship and convince the other that there is a challenge/problem and if you both agree, that is the first step to healing the relationship. Once you identify the problem now you can strategize and develop a plan that you both agree on.
You can either schedule a time to meet with a couple's therapist or you can work on your relationship yourselves. Once you download the DiY Intervention relationship program, you can sit down with your partner and start going through the self-guided early intervention on your relationship. The program allows you to work through your issues and challenges together on your own time and at your own pace.
You can follow the download on your computer, or print it out, or read it off your phone. We give you the early intervention modules to begin the opportunity of working through your particular issues and challenges.
When you have date night (possibly one time per week), you can include the DiY Intervention program as part of your time together. The DiY program has 10 modules that guide you through relationship opportunities that can help you to heal, sustain and even thrive in your relationship. The opportunity to do-it-yourself is a great opportunity.
Remember when you were dating or newly married how things were going very smoothly? Things change in the relationship when something new is added such as a baby. An additional family member or another situation in life (positive or negative) can have effects on your relationship as a couple. So the earlier you are able to intervene on your relationship the better chances of success will be with you.
