It's hard to solve a problem if I don't know what it is. Extreme marital troubles might seem like the elephant in the room, but you can't quite see what it is.
Time and separation alone solves nothing. A direction and plan for treatment and reconciliation is the most critical component in the Structured Separation process.
The Separation contract closes out the old unhealthy relationship and specifies the rules, responsibilities and expectations for the beginning of the new relationship.
Structured Separations are a long process. Generally 12 to 18 months in length. Essential to it's success, is a plan to implement and monitor the progress during this time of growth.
