The pain of splitting up is obvious. Most couples have a shared history, worthy of making every effort to stay together and figure things out. Couples with children have an extra incentive to stay together. Our model of tailored and focused treatment provides greater opportunity for success over traditional couples therapy sessions. While sometimes effective, traditional marriage counseling and couple’s therapy consists of hour-long therapy sessions once per week. We find this approach severely limiting and even potentially harmful for relationships in severe distress.
In our approach, the most significant breakthroughs are oftentimes made in the eighth or ninth hour of one of our intensives. In addition, we routinely use male-female co-therapy teams to provide a balanced perspective and to achieve maximum benefits. Working with couples over the last 15 years, we have seen many couples stay together and many that split up. Our experiences have led us to an essential conclusion:
The difference between a couple that stays together and a couple
that splits up is knowing what to do when you get to the brink
That’s right, not IF but WHEN you get to the brink. We believe that arriving at the brink is a necessary stage in every marriage or long term relationship. It is a stage indicating that the relationship is ready to undergo a change—a needed and ultimately positive change. Reconnecting with one another is simpler than most people think.
We are extremely committed to your relationship success and are willing to do what it takes to get you back on track. At Couples On The Brink, we are pioneers in the everyday use of High-Impact Therapy Sessions (HITS). Our services are NOT groups but rather individualized treatment programs designed to move any relationship in a forward direction. You receive personalized attention from our team of couples experts that is unlike any marriage or couples counseling you may have attended. Couples who benefit from our intensives are often leading parallel lives and struggling with a variety of issues. Usually one or both people are unhappy in the relationship, feeling stuck, and may even be questioning whether on not to stay in the relationship. This is our area of expertise and we can help.
