Not sure whether to stay together or separate?

Discernment Counseling is designed for couples who are uncertain about the future of their relationship. Often, one partner is leaning toward ending the relationship while the other hopes to preserve it, leaving both feeling stuck, confused, and unable to move forward.

Unlike traditional couples therapy, Discernment Counseling is not focused on solving relationship problems right away. Instead, it helps couples gain clarity and confidence about the path ahead. Together, we explore how the relationship reached this point, each partner's role in the difficulties, and whether there is enough willingness and motivation to work toward repair.

The goal is not to convince either person to stay or leave. Rather, it is to help both partners make a thoughtful, informed decision about one of three paths:

• Continue the relationship as it is for now

• Commit to an intensive course of couples therapy aimed at repairing the relationship

• Separate in a more intentional and respectful way

Discernment Counseling can help reduce confusion, lower conflict, and create a clearer sense of direction during a difficult and emotional time.
