Marriage Counseling in Matthews Built Around Your Specific Pattern
Discussing what is wrong in your marriage is not like transforming it. The UnTalk Therapy technique that was developed by Phil was as a result of personal observation; over the years of practice, Phil realized that those couples who spoke the most in her sessions would not get better. The knowledge of the cycle behind the conflict and breaking it was what actually brought the change.
Phil is attentive to the partner reactions of one another in the sessions. He follows the tendency of follow-up and retreat, of silence and burst, of hope and disillusionment. As soon as that trend becomes evident to both spouses, the process of reorienting it starts.
