Strip Mall Counseling

We survived tonight. Actually it was really good. The first session is always a look at the history and current situation. Other than the counselor being in a physical therapy office, having no one to give us the forms to fill out when we arrived 15 minutes early (as we were instructed), and ending the session a few minutes early, it was good.

We have the next two sessions scheduled. We shall see what happens. He said that our problems are very fixable and that we have a strong marriage. That makes me feel good. I think the fact that we were very honest, up front, and said we were interested in long term counseling showed how badly we want to improve our relationship.

We left laughing and joking. We enjoyed a nice dinner where we continued our conversation. It was a very nice evening. Not what you would expect from counseling, but that is good.
