    What’s an example of a couple you have helped the most?

    “I was distraught when my wife and I came to him in Canberra. My wife seemed ready to leave me and I had no idea why. He was able to help us discover exactly what the issues were, and how we could overcome them. He provided a supportive, non-judgemental environment, yet didn’t avoid the tough issues. He restored in me a sense of perspective in what was going on, and empowered me to do all that I could for positive change. Today my wife and I are enjoying a marriage better than at any previous time, knowing that our time with him has also enabled us to make sure we never end up in the same situation again. My sincerest thanks for helping us to hold on to the most precious thing in our lives”.
