The Therapist

Deb and I decided that in order to continue to work on our relationship, we would go to therapy.....together. So we had our first session about a week ago. I liked it. And I liked doing it with Deb. However, after that session the therapist said she wanted to meet with just me. Alone. Oh shit. I guess I'm really screwed up and need some one-on-one attention. So I agreed.

I had my first one-on-one session yesterday. I wish Deb was there to be a part of it. Being on the receiving side of therapy reminded me that I'm good at telling other people what they should do to make their life better, but boy it's hard for me to hear things about me that I don't want to hear. Like how controlling and selfish I can be. Session 1 done. Session 2 coming up.

Today I'm in Seattle for some training. It's at The Gottman Institute and you'll never guess what it's for???

It's advanced study in Couples Therapy. Go figure! Over the next 4 days I'm in a workshop that will teach a method that helps troubled marriages. The workshop provides information about couples dynamics, marital assessment, couples exercises and therapeutic interventions.

So I'm surrounded by marital therapy right now. I guess it's what I need. I'll let you know how it goes.

Till next time......remember Passion Rules!
