Even the worst of the betrayals can be overcome. You can find the strength to continue and live happily again.
And if even without a betrayal you’re feeling frustrated, unwanted, confused about the future of your relationship,
or if you feel resentful, irritated and angry at your partner for something that he/she has said, or done, know that you’re not alone. And that it can change. Things can get better.
And your decision to attend Couples Therapy to work on the relationship issues that you are facing is certainly a step in the right direction, so congratulations!

Let's make the most of your Couples Therapy Sessions with the help of this journal!
Making the decision to "go to couples therapy" is not easy for most people. So, if you overcame all the challenges involved in this process (the internal and external obstacles), we want you to help you make the most out of your sessions with the help of this journal (which is good for LGBT couples, too).
The act of writing on this journal during Couples Therapy Sessions will help you:
✓ reflect about the important things in your relationship,
✓ encourage you to observe and learn more about your partner – including about his/her background, upbringing, unique characteristics & dreams,
✓ and it will make you attentive to your therapist’s sharing, too; help you capture your own insights during sessions.

★ How to use this journal
This journal has 3 main spaces for you to write in:
1) a space for you to write what is the focus of each session (the topics may be something that you or your partner propose because you’d like to work on them, or it could be something suggested by your therapist)
2) a space to capture how your partner is thinking & feeling and what he or she is sharing during each session,
3) a space for you to write your own insights & takeaways during counseling sessions,
And on the Additional Notes section you will find space to write about anything else that you think is important and was not captured by the previous sections of the journal (eg. relevant thoughts and events between therapy sessions).
The introductory pages of this journal also include:
✓ a "calendar" for you to write down the dates of your future appointments,
✓ and key suggestions for how to make the most of your therapy sessions and for improving your relationship at home.
[Please note that this journal is not a workbook with guided conversations or couples related questions for you and your partner to answer together].
Couples Therapy helps couples improve, mend and deepen their relationship, or in some cases it may help with a "closure", with a thought through resolution (which may not mean to remain together as a couple, but to move on with strength and respectfully, which also counts).
Whatever your case may be, we are certain that Couples Therapy and this journal will help you on your journey to a more fulfilled life. (and that is coming from someone who attended Couples Therapy herself!)
