[quote=Anonymous]Does your husband genuinely want to change? If not, what would the goals of therapy be? Also, if he’s a compulsive liar and he tells you that he does genuinely want to change, you’ll need to at least consider the possibility that he’s lying. This isn’t really amenable to therapy — unless someone truly wants to change embedded patterns of behavior, and possibly perceptions. Start with someone who specializes in personality disorders. You could also consider family or couples therapy— to explore the impact of his behavior on your family. Or, consider your own individual therapy — to explore what it means for you to be married to a compulsive liar. If your own physicians can’t recommend some options, you might start with providers who accept your insurance. The American Psychological Association also has an online directory. [/quote]
