Would you benefit from Discernment Counseling? This week, we find out. The founder of discernment counseling, Dr. Bill Doherty, joins us on the podcast. Not only did Dr. Doherty develop a specific type of counseling for couples where one is considering divorce, he's also been on Oprah not just once, but twice! From Harpo to How Not To Suck At Divorce, Dr. Doherty is moving up in the world, that's for sure.

Discernment counseling is when one person is leaning OUT of the relationship and considering divorce and the other person is leaning IN and wants to try to make things work. This type of counseling gives people clarity and confidence based on a deeper understanding of what has happened in the marriage.

Dr. Doherty answers the questions:

1. What is discernment counseling?
2. Does discernment counseling solve problems in the marriage?
3. What are the differences between couples therapy and discernment counseling?
4. How long is discernment counseling?
5. What are the three paths of discernment counseling?
6. How do I know if we should try couples therapy or discernment counseling?

Stay until the end because Dr. Doherty blows the lid off traditional therapy and tells us he favorite type of wine (you won't believe his answer).
