Catching a Relationship Before Divorce is the Destination with Linda Murphy

Our guest today is Linda Murphy, founder of the Relationship and Divorce Counseling Center where she and her colleagues work to help others through difficult relationship transitions. Sometimes, that means coaching through the divorce process. But sometimes, it means catching the relationship before divorce becomes the destination.

When should you start counseling? What signs are you watching that you might be able to save the marriage with a little help? How do you know it’s over? Linda’s experience working with couples gives her a perspective on divorce that is optimistic, not dedicating to saving marriages, but navigating conflict in a way that might just help you illuminate a new path in your own relationship.
