Discernment Counseling for

Couples on the Brink

Discernment counselor for deciding whether to divorce, attend couples therapy, or decide later.

Work with a trained Discernment Counselor to agree on a clear path forward

When one partner is leaning out while the other hopes to rebuild, Discernment Counseling will help you decide whether to try to restore your marriage to health, move toward divorce, or take a time out and decide later. Marina is a trained Discernment Counselor through the creators of Discernment Counseling.

The goal is for you to gain clarity and confidence about a direction, based on a deeper understanding of your relationship and its possibilities for the future.

The goal is not to solve your marital problems but to see if they are solvable. You will be treated with compassion and respect no matter how you are feeling about your relationship.

Number of Sessions: A maximum of 5 sessions. You get to choose at the end of each session if you’d like to come back for another session. The first session is usually 2 hours and the subsequent are 1.5 or 2 hours.

*Note: This approach works best when both partners come willingly and neither has definitively decided on divorce. Not suitable in cases of domestic violence.
