THE RIGHT HELP, RIGHT NOW
When faced with your spouse’s unfaithful, untrustworthy, uncooperative or ambivalent behavior, you need to cope with your feelings – but you also need to keep thinking, and thinking smartly. What are the best, and worst, ways for you to handle what is happening in a practical sense? What words and actions are most likely to motivate your spouse to prioritize you and your marriage, given what is happening? Debra Macleod’s Marriage SOS™ provides specialized and accessible resources that can help you properly manage this marriage crisis, reconnect with your spouse, and save your marriage, starting now. Because if not now, when? You’ll know it’s right for you if any of the below points resonate:
- Your spouse had an affair and you don't know how to handle it; you are struggling to recover and rebuild
- Your spouse is refusing or reluctant to end an affair or other extramarital relationship; you don't believe it's over; you worry it will start up again
- Your husband is having a midlife crisis / your wife is drifting away from the marriage
- Your spouse is self-focused, manipulative or defensive; won't be transparent or accountable
- Your marriage has lost its intimacy, warmth and good humor; your marriage is full of arguing, ambivalence or apathy
- You don't need or want psychotherapy; you've found that marriage counseling did nothing or made matters worse
- You want revealing, usable information delivered uninterrupted; you prefer a "blunt" or straightforward discussion about issues
- You want detailed insights, ideas and strategies to choose from, not just general concepts
- You prefer issue-specific help, without religious content, that is private, convenient and fits your lifestyle
- You are willing to consider unconventional or "hardline" strategies if necessary to make a change

From the first word to the last, I felt like you reached into the chaos of my marriage, sat me down and said, “Now listen up, sweetheart, this is what you’re going to do.” I am still surprised by how precisely your program mirrored what was happening to me, and how fast things changed once I wised up and started using your strategies. I truly thank you. – Cara

ONE-SHOT PHONE SESSIONS
One-on-one telephone sessions with Debra Macleod are a little different. Instead of trying to book ongoing sessions, Debra tries to offer usable insights and brainstorm key strategies in a single session, thus bringing you closer to that all-important pivot point in your marriage – the point when things can start to change to your benefit. While phone sessions do move rapidly, they are relaxed and friendly, with a plainspoken and purposeful style that many people prefer. So if you’re struggling with your spouse’s (or your own) emotional or physical affair, overly close friendship, midlife episode or other challenging behavior, book a session with Debra. One hour can help you turn an important corner.
