Discernment Therapy
Discernment Counseling tackles painful ambivalence.
What is Discernment Counseling?
Discernment Counseling (also known as “discernment therapy” or “pre-divorce counseling”) is a process designed for couples considering divorce. Unlike marriage counseling, discernment counseling focuses primarily on individual reflection. Joint meetings are brief and free from debate or argument. The majority of the time is spent with a clinician in private, one-on-one conversations with each spouse, while shorter sessions involve sharing selected insights with your partner.
What you can expect:
Each person completes a comprehensive assessment
Participate in individual sessions and limited joint meetings
Both partners gain clarity on whether to remain in or leave the marriage
Possible outcomes are making no change to the marriage, divorcing, or attempting reconciliation through couples’ therapy. Schedule your session today!
