If staying or going is constantly a question in your mind, there are big things to consider AND they each have implications.
It can be crazy-making.

Making a decision about leaving a relationship is complicated.

This cohort group will help you work through your reasons for staying, the pull to leave, the need to save your sanity.

  • Understand your options
  • Think through the consequences.
  • Decide what's healthiest for you (and your children).
  • Recognize emotionally abusive patterns
  • Know that you're important
  • Get support, with others who know what you're going through
  • Get specific answers to your personal questions in this small group.

If you've been living in a state of flux, feeling unsure, anxious or unsafe, but also obligated, guilty or "staying for the kids", you'll benefit from systematically working through your decision with Dr. Shaler's guidance.

Invest in these 12 weeks of personal support and deep diving so you can feel confident you're making the best decision.

Join the first cohort - Starts Oct 12, 2022

A big decision like this needs attention and intention, and deep understanding of where you really are and where it's healthiest to be.

Making snap decisions isn't always wise

Maybe, things are just hard right now because of outside factors. Or... maybe they have been hard for a really long time and you're tired of the drama but don't know what to do.

If you're somewhere in the middle, and just know that something NEEDS to change, this program will help you figure out WHAT and WHEN and HOW to take the best next steps for you.

Connect with a small group making the same decisions - Starts January 2023
