Discernment Counseling in Orange County, California

For couples on the brink

If you or your spouse are considering divorce but are not completely sure that’s the best path, you are in a tough spot. If so, Discernment Counseling in Orange County, California is designed for you. It’s a chance to slow down, take a breath, and look at your options for your marriage.

Discernment Counseling in Orange County CA is a new way of helping couples where one person is “leaning out” of the relationship—and not sure that regular marriage counseling would help–and the other is “leaning in”—that is, interested in rebuilding the marriage. Dr Fiore at FioreCouplesCounseling will help you decide whether to try to restore your marriage to health, move toward divorce, or take a time out and decide later. The goal is for you to gain clarity and confidence about a direction, based on a deeper understanding of your relationship and its possibilities for the future.

The goal is not to solve your marital problems but to see if they are solvable. You will each be treated with compassion and respect no matter how you are feeling about your marriage at the moment. No bad guys and good guys. You will come in as a couple but the most important work occurs in the one-to-one conversations with FioreCouplesCounseling in Orange County, California. Why? Because you are starting out in different places.

Dr Fiore respects your reasons for divorce while trying to open up the possibility of restoring the marriage to health. He emphasizes the importance of each of you seeing your own contributions to the problems and the possible solutions. This will be useful in future relationships even if this one ends.
