We heard about them many years ago. At that time, they seem to have only offered in-person workshops. We talked about going, but didn’t using the excuse it required us to leave kids and not being able to take off work. Expense was used as part of the excuse, too. We could have afforded it.

It’s great that they have online courses to reach the masses that cost far less money and inconvenience.

Maybe fear held us back from going to see them in-person. Fear of the degree of dysfunction being exposed?

We saw a couple other therapists together at home over the years. There was no improvement.

The struggle is, and it has become evident in this course, too, I ask for my needs to be met, he promises to do it, and he consistently fails me…rinse,repeat.
