We’re Listening:
Your Voice, Your Experience
I just want him to listen to
me and understand
what I'm going through.
I feel like I'm in this
marriage by myself.
I've given him so many chances,
but nothing ever changes.
I'm starting to resent him
for all the things he doesn’t do.
I'm tired of fighting and
feeling drained all the time.
I deserve to be with someone
who truly values and loves me.
I’m juggling so much and feel
like I’m doing it all alone.
Every conversation turns
into an argument.
I’m scared of what might
happen if things don’t improve.

How Therapy Transformed Our Marriage:
A Wife's Testimonial
Ian was instrumental in helping me to comprehend and integrate two key principals of addiction recovery into my life. With Ian's assistance, I was able to recognize that my husband's addiction was not because of me, but still about me. It wasn't something I did or did not do, say or did not say, that "caused" his addiction. However, I could not disengage from his recovery effort s and refuse to change and progress myself, seeing it as his problem and not mine, if I truly wanted our marriage to succeed. Understanding and accepting that principal not only saved my marriage, but made me a better person separate from my husband's addiction recovery.
