Join us for an insightful conversation with Dr. Becky Whetstone, a pioneer in the field of marriage crisis management. Dr. Whetstone shares her personal journey of discovering a critical gap in therapy training after experiencing her own marriage crisis. Her dedication to addressing this void led her to create a niche within marriage and family therapy to better support couples in distress. With over 650,000 divorces annually in the United States, Dr. Whetstone emphasizes the importance of early intervention and training therapists to guide couples through these challenging times. Listen in as we explore the common pattern of internal marital dissatisfaction that often leads to a crisis, highlighting the need for effective communication and professional support.

In this episode, we also discuss the sudden crises that can disrupt a marriage, such as hidden addictions or financial irresponsibility. Stabilizing emotional states and fostering communication are crucial steps in navigating these tumultuous times. Dr. Whetstone shares valuable insights on the importance of self-awareness and responsibility in healing relationships. Additionally, she opens up about her journey of writing a book aimed at educating both therapists and couples, sharing the challenges and determination needed to bring her research to a wider audience.
