Our second session with the wise and insightful Yolanda.

Yolanda is our marriage counselor. Now, please, nobody panic – all of those envisioning Jm and I returning on separate planes from Canada and embarking on vicious custody battles please stop now. The truth is both that we are grand and also that we need some help.

These last few years have been hard on us with all the transitions, children and depression and the next few promise their own share of challenges. Time for a spring clean of those recurring problems and conflict areas. Time to reconnect and re-learn how to love and honour and respect each other.

And so thank you for Yolanda who already, in 2 short sessions, has cut through the crap to the heart of the matter and has helped us see each other in all our fragile frailty.

Thank you for Regent and their super-cheap, high quality counseling service

Thank you for Jm, truly a hero as he steps into unchartered territory for the love of his wife.

This may seem a little greedy, but just confirmed my next trip back to Rivendell in a few weeks.  Plus husband, minus kids. I am very thankful for a kind and foolhardy friend who has agreed to give us 2 nights away in this sacred spot.
