We regularly receive feedback about how the COUPLE COMMUNICATION Program impacts couples positively. Some of the stories show such profound turnarounds in a relationship, they must be shared. Five CC instructors tell the following:
A couple came to us stating, "This is our last hope in saving our marriage." They were in counseling with their priest and had been to a variety of workshops and marriage enrichment courses. By the third class they reported that their priest was amazed at how well they were progressing in counseling. At the end of the fourth class they held a ceremony and rededicated their marriage.

One couple came to therapy as their last attempt before the divorce lawyer. I suggested they take CCI so they could better discuss their options and indicated they would always need to communicate even if divorced because they shared children. They took the course and dropped the divorce, and used it as a tool to enrich their marriage.

At the end of one of my programs, a couple who had been separated for 7 months announced that they had tried books, enrichment programs and counseling without progress. CC was their last ditch effort to save their marriage. It worked for them. They said it was how they communicated that had gotten in their way to problem-solving. The husband had moved home before the last class.

I had one couple take the course who said they were ready to go see the lawyers and get a divorce. They didn't believe their marriage could be helped. The course gave them hope. They learned the mapping issue process and it transformed their marriage. They say it's better than it ever was and are glad they didn't get divorced.

I think of two couples, both in their 50's, both married 28-29 years. One husband wanted out. One wife wanted out. The CCI experience was so remarkable for both that, essentially, a new relationship within their marriage was created for each couple.
