From Divorce Papers to a Renewed Marriage
Robert and Joan called and said, “We have already contacted the divorce attorneys. However, after talking, we think we would like to schedule some counseling and consider your Phoenix Project.” They made the initial appointment and told their story. The Phoenix Project is for couples who have already filed for divorce, been divorced, or are seriously thinking about throwing in the towel on their relationship. Counseling is hard work; it is time-consuming; and it costs money. However, couples’ therapy is cheaper than a divorce. Robert and Joan scheduled an Intensive with Michael Christian so he could analyze their situation quickly. Following their Intensive, they met with Dr. Christian weekly and began to address the problem issues they had identified.
After several weeks of counseling, they decided to cancel the divorce, work on their relationship, and try to make the changes that would produce mutual gratification in their marriage. Reflecting on their experience working with Michael Christian, Robert and Joan have said, “It has been a miracle. Dr. Christian was the right person for us to work with. His knowledge and experience provided a safe and nonbiased process where we could talk together and decide the future. We are glad we found Dr. Christian. We are thrilled with our marriage today. We look forward to spending the rest of our days together.”
If you are in a relationship that has already terminated or you are thinking about calling it quits, perhaps you read Robert and Joan’s story and think that something similar could happen for you. Give Dr. Christian a call today and ask about what counseling might look like for you.
