[quote=Anonymous]Go to a Marriage and Family therapist, or someone who is Gottman or EFT certified, or advertises years of advanced training in couples therapy. Most run of the mill therapists who are focusing on "I" Statements are just dabbling at a skill that requires years of specific training to be really good at. active ongoing addiction makes it close to impossible to put couples back together- because the addiction is a "third" in your relationship. If your husband continues to manage his pain this way, you will struggle to ever gain ground in therapy. You may be in a place to consider Discernment Counseling. The intent of these sessions is to decide: commit to counseling and repair for 6 months, separate for 6 months, or head straight to divorce. It's typically a max of 5 sessions. This might wake your husband up. Sorry you have had such a bad experience. -Couples therapist [/quote]
