Just click on counsel at the top under the logo.<P>I think it was about $80 a session, but well worth it. Yes, it was easier to schedule a time we would sit at home by the phone than to drive. I thought it might be awkward, but it wasn't.<P>There is Jennifer or her brother Steve. I worked with her. At first I thought my h would do better with a man, but he really would listen to her telling him the same things I would try to. He realized it wasn't just me.<P>She would take you step by step through a plan to eliminate LBs (like his verbal) and set on a course to truly meet needs.<P>We figured even if we spent a couple thousand $, what could we possibly find that was better to spend it on? As it turned out, we got on track after several hundred (5 or 6 sessions).

Hi Cindy,<P>So you only went for about seven sessions and then stoped?<P>The problem I had with all our therapists is that though some of them said they were solution based we never sat down and set up a plan to implament. I guess I am the one dragging my feet this time because I do not want to pay to sit and grip. I can do that for free at home. <P>I will try and get more information and call to see about how it works. I like the idea that we both can be in separate or same room at home doing this than fighting traffic, scheduals, and the like.<P>Thank you very much for the information.

We may have stopped to soon, but we were really on track implementing our plans. So we've run with the ball ourselves.<P>The first times were often two in one sessions - very intense. After all, he told her about the EA and she coached him on telling me that same night.<P>And yes, she held us to making the plans, faxing them to her, and reporting on how we were doing meeting them.

Hi Cindy,<P>I hope you do not think I am being too intrusive in your life but what made you decide on using the Harleys?<P>I have thought about it but have always come short of actually making the phone call. <P>I know Tony wants to go but I just do not want to pay anymore if he is not going to take it serious and work on it. For example, he wanted to go back on Prozac. I made the doctors appointment and instead the doctor gave him paxil. Does he take it no. He would take it when I remind him but I can not remind him everyday when I have a hard time keeping track of my schedual right now.<P>I just feel that if we do this than he really has to do the majority of the work because I am tired of doing all the relationship stuff. Such as me getting all the books asking him to read them and then he does not. <P>Yesturday I did something somewhat stupid but I asked him if he loved me. He said he cared for me a great deal. He also mentioned that the spark was gone. Not sure what he means by that one.<P>I am in a stage where I want to feel secure in my relationship...not always wondering what is going on.<P>Cindy I wanted to thank you for the infromation. How are things going for you?
