I have learned that the one leaning towards divorce is often dealing with ambivalence... It’s possible that you’ve lost hope for this relationship but you also feel guilt about considering leaving. You may also feel anxious; you hope for a fresh start, for things to be better, but it feels complicated and messy.

I have learned that the person wanting to preserve the marriage is often dealing with maximum levels of anxiety... You might be doing everything you can to keep your partner connected. Alternatively you might be trying to protect yourself by pushing your partner away. It feels confusing and just so hurtful.

I have been working with couples since 2020.
