Discernment counseling and therapy with Arizona Relationship Institute can help couples to make informed and solid decisions about continuing or ending the relationship.
Closure Therapy is a type of couples therapy that occurs at the end of a relationship, when the decision has been made to break-up or divorce. Closure therapy helps both partners separate amicably. Therapy provides closure, or “becoming okay with” ending the relationship.
This type of couples divorce therapy is especially helpful for divorces involving children, separation of pets or dear-property. It seeks to find amicable solutions for very difficult problems.
However, there have been many couples that realize that they DO want to save their marriage during Discernment Counseling and Therapy. At this point, it becomes marriage counseling, and no longer would be categorized as discernment therapy. A couple that wants to save their marriage should utilize couples counseling and marriage therapy to try and fix the relationship issues before they become cause for terminating the relationship altogether.
The Arizona Relationship Institute offers relationship counseling for people at all stages of their relationship: Dating, Cohabitating, Pre-Marital and Marriage Counseling.

Marriage Closure Therapy is a therapeutic intervention that assists couples in their personal transition pre and post divorce.
This type of therapy is appropriate for individuals or couples who are having a hard time coming to any separation or divorce agreement and/or have deep resentments. It is also helpful in situations where one partner does not want the divorce, when both spouses are very sad, where spouses are angry and that anger is tugging at the child or children or both spouses are ambivalent about the divorce. Simply stated, this form of therapy can be very effective for couples who have not made up their minds about their relationship and are not at peace with the decision to stay together or to divorce.
The external goal of marriage closure therapy is to bring closure to the relationship through reconciliation or dissolution. The internal goals may be co-parenting, facilitating grief, establishing clear boundaries, and letting the rejected partners down easy.
