My Marriage Story

Molly and I got married two days after I graduated from the Air Force Academy. Full of hope for our future, we packed up our first U-Haul and headed to pilot training.

Military life was hard on our marriage. We moved five times in five years, and we seemed to drift further apart every time.

We finally started couples therapy after my first military deployment. We worked with the best couples therapist we could find, but nothing changed. We didn’t communicate well, and we were still drifting apart. But we are stubborn, and we didn’t give up.

After five frustrating years of bad therapy, we finally got lucky when we started working with a Crucible Therapist.

Crucible Therapy was nothing like what we had been doing. Our therapist challenged us constantly, pointing out exactly what we were doing wrong, and helping us fix it right then and there. She was kind and compassionate, but also blunt and persistent. It was a different kind of couples therapy.

I retired from the Air Force to become a Crucible Therapist, and Molly soon joined me. Now we help other couples the way our therapist helped us.

Crucible Therapy saved my marriage, and it just might save yours.

  • Couples Therapy for Affair Recovery and Infidelity in Roseville, CA:

    The person you trusted most, the one you shared your life with, has betrayed you in the most intimate way. You feel foolish for not seeing the signs earlier. You’re questioning every moment of your relationship, wondering if any of it was real. You want to move forward, but you don’t even know where to start.

    Emotional affairs can be just as damaging as physical affairs because they create a breach of trust and cause both partners t reconsider their commitment to the relationship.

Q&A

    I will help you bring more kindness, compassion, and courage into your relationship. I will help you feel more powerful, more in-control, more safe, and more secure.

    During our first session together, I will give you communication tools and tips that will help you have more productive conversations with your partner.

During our first session, we will talk about what you are hoping to change in your relationship and how long it might take to make those changes.
