You are only present in your marriage to the degree you are facing all aspects of yourself.

I created A Complete Approach™ because a 50-minute session simply does not give us enough time to get acquainted, gain an understanding of the issues at a root level and begin taking steps toward improvement.

I do not want you to feel that we finally reached the real issue only to hear me say, “Our time is up.” With 90 minutes, we have time to get beyond the surface and work with what is actually happening between you.

I work with both of you together in our session. When your conversation starts going wrong, I can stop us there and lead you through a different way of talking so you can feel the difference while it is happening.

A Complete Approach™ is also ideal when you want meaningful work without committing to a long-term plan before we know whether you need one. Some couples may find that one focused session and the resources that come with it give them what they need to continue on their own.

You receive The Communication Cure® 10 Week Experience and 30 Complete Conversations™. These are experiences you use together, rather than worksheets you complete and then have to figure out how to apply.

✅ With The Communication Cure® you watch a short video together, then audio guidance leads you through questions about your lives. The guided process gives you room to answer fully and receive your spouse’s answer. You begin experiencing conversations where you learn something new and enjoy being together. It is actually WAY deeper than this, but at this point until you experience it, this description will suffice. 😃

✅ 30 Complete Conversations™ supports you when there is a particular subject you want or need to discuss. Each one gives you a complete sequence of questions that guides the conversation from its beginning toward a satisfying end.

The 90-minute session and both resources are included for $225, which is the price of the session alone.

WIVES:
As the moderator of a Facebook marriage group with 45,000+ members, I have listened to several wives describe the same pattern recently.

You begin telling your husband something important, but before you finish your first thought, he corrects one detail, starts solving the problem or answers what he believes you are about to say.
Now you have two jobs. You are trying to finish what you came to say while also trying to pull the conversation back from wherever he took it.

“Can I please finish?” becomes “Would you just listen?” Your voice gets louder as your opportunity to be heard gets smaller. Eventually, you stop trying, and he may think the conversation is over even though you know it never really began.

You want that important conversation to go differently. I created The Communication Cure® to begin several steps earlier, with everyday conversations that carry much less emotional weight.

Each week, you and your husband watch a curated video together. It may be a commercial, podcast clip, TED Talk, comedy clip or song lyric video. The questions begin with what you watched and gradually bring the conversation into your individual lives and the life you share.

When it is your turn, you have time to finish your answer while he listens. Then you change places. The guided voice tells each of you when to speak, listen and respond, so you do not have to keep fighting for your turn or take charge of making the conversation work.

The listening skills are caught while you are actually using them. Both of you settle, curiosity has room to grow, and you learn something about the person you live with that you would not have heard if the conversation had been interrupted.

Ten weeks of experiences like that begin laying down a different expectation: I will have time to finish. My spouse will hear the answer I actually give. We can stay in this conversation together.
When the more important subject comes, there are already tracks under the two of you for the conversation to travel on.

The free sample I offer begins with a four-minute inspirational beer commercial. Twenty minutes together will show you what another post cannot. I’ll put the signup link in the first comment.

I have spent years asking couples needed questions. I've learned there are quality questions and poor quality questions.
I had the opportunity to be a guest on 42, a business show about better questions and better business.

My episode is now live. I'd love for you to watch it, like it, leave a comment, and subscribe to the channel.

I've been making a more conscious effort to speak and share in life giving ways. Tonight's podcast will provide me another opportunity to do that. Give it a listen.

Tonight at 7:30pm est on "Light It Up Live" it's episode 48: Special Guest, Keith Dorscht. Check out his Bio. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Coach Keith Dorscht is a Christian marriage coach with 30 years of experience, 500+ marriage intensives, and more than 30,000 sessions with couples and families. After losing his 27-year marriage and the family life he knew with six children, Keith had to face the painful contradiction of being the man who led other couples through crisis while his own home had fallen apart. His story is one of failure, shame, truth, mercy, and God re-establishing a man who still had work to do. Today, Keith speaks with hard-earned honesty about guarding your heart, facing what you would rather hide, and trusting that failure does not have to be final in the hands of God.

I could not ignore what clients were asking.
"What do we do next week when you aren't with us?"
This is my answer.
I believe there is no better answer out there for solving connection, closeness, and communication needs.

There is a real skill to asking the right question, at the right time, in the right order, at the right depth. Get it wrong and the connection you need to carry the topic is lost.

I've been developing my question asking skills for 30 years while working with couples. The results for them have exceeded their expectations.

30 Complete Conversations™ is your opportunity to experience the same level of success without spending the years of getting good at it or requiring my personal involvement.

You know if the important topics are not discussed the drift and distance will leave you feeling cold, hurt, and 'done' with.

A conversation starter card pack gives you the first question (because apparently you can't come up with that on your own) and then you magically can develop that into a full conversation... just doesn't make sense.
30 Complete Conversations™ was a tool I developed in 2009 in response to clients asking me 'How can we talk like this on our own, at home, when you are not with us?'
It's not a book you have to read to get educated on communication, it is 30 topics with 10-18 questions that build on one another.
Many good things happen in you and your marriage when you use this tool 2-3 times a week. You grow personally by practicing healthy skills, you train your central nervous system to be less sensitive and reactive, you stay curious about your partner, you learn things about each other...

I understand the question. It is very valid. 💯
A husband is told, “We need to get help,” and what he hears underneath it is, “We are going to pay someone to tell me what I am doing wrong.”

He may already think he knows what is going on. He may already know she is hurt, he gets defensive, the talk goes bad, nothing changes, and now someone else is going to sit in the room and point at the same things with better words.

🚫 I would not be eager to pay for that either.

Talking is part of good marriage help, but talking is not the outcome. Talking is the place where the outcomes either start happening or fails to happen again.

A professional should be helping both of you enter the conversation with enough openness of MIND and HEART that the same old reaction does not take over before anything useful can happen.

📈 Research on couples therapy has found that the average person who participates is better off at the end than 70 to 80 percent of those who never participate.

So what is supposed to be getting better?
Research on couple therapy commonly measures success by outcomes like:

✅ Increased relationship satisfaction
The marriage feels less painful, less empty, and more worth being in.

✅ Improved communication
You are not just taking turns talking. You are hearing, answering, and staying present without the same blame, defense, or shutdown running the conversation.

✅ Greater emotional closeness and empathy
Your spouse begins to feel less like an opponent and more like the person you are trying to understand again.

✅ More constructive conflict (conflict is normal - damage needs to stop)
Hard topics can be faced without doing the same damage every time they come up.

✅ Rebuilt trust and safety ( includes safety at the central nervous system level)
Not “trust me because I said so,” but new evidence over time that the marriage can hold honesty, hurt, repair, and responsibility.

✅ Personal ownership and growth
Each spouse can see what they bring into the marriage without collapsing into shame or turning the whole room into a courtroom.

✅ Clearer direction (this is very difficult to see on your won when hoplessness has entered)
You can see what is possible, what still needs work, and what the next good step needs to be.

Those outcomes will not look exactly the same in every marriage because every couple has their own history, pressure points, fears, reactions, injuries, strengths, and capacity.
Good help should NOT force your marriage into a cookie cutter.
Good help should help connection, closeness, and communication start working again so the two of you can carry more of this together, not simply leave with a better explanation of why you are stuck.

You want the two of you to be able to handle your marriage without needing someone else in the room when things shift from peace and connection into frustration, distance, or upset.
I support that.

When I work with a couple, I am not wanting to become the voice your marriage depends on. I facilitate connection, closeness, and communication so they are working again, and you both can produce these outcomes together instead of needing someone to keep pulling the conversation back from the same old reaction.

📅 If that is the kind of help you are looking for, book a session. With years of experience helping couples rebuild connection, improve communication, and create lasting change, I am confident I can help you take the next good step for your marriage.
