What You Need to Know to Save Your Marriage

I have worked with both couples and individuals as a Psychologist for over 20 years and in one way or another the theme of any difficulty in a relationship is the tension between viewing a relationship as being of separate individuals or being of one whole together.

Quote by Walt Whitman

“Not I, nor anyone else can travel that road for you.
You must travel it by yourself.
It is not far. It is within reach.
Perhaps you have been on it since you were born, and did not know.
Perhaps it is everywhere – on water and land.”

~ Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass
