Find your Way with the marriage compass
If we are going to get where we want to go, we need to know which direction we are headed so we can redirect.
​
The Marriage Compass will give you a chance to quickly identify the AREAS you should focus on and the TACTICS you are most missing to get there. It is based on a mixture of my 27 years of personal and professional Marriage Mountaineering. It includes the core questions I would need to ask to help you move forward if you were in my office.

COMPASS RESOURCES
When you are ready for less Intensity and more work on your own, this is the place to look:
​
- Transitioning Towards Less Intensity:
o Regular live online Webinar: Important topics, Q&A, and specific issues germane to the lifelong climb we are on. November 17th at 1230p. We’ll discuss how to build positivity generally and during the holiday season, and any troubleshooting you need. We’ll be talking about this article: Holiday Principles and Practices and the Compass. Attend anonymously if desired.
o Gottman Institute’s Relationship Builder. Sign up for this interactive training system through Erica to get specialized tools and reduced fee. You’ll get brief, targeted videos that show you a couple engaging in micro communication skills – done poorly, then done well, then a worksheet to help you do them better. I wish I had used this in my marriage 20 years ago! For the cost of two sessions with me, you’ll get unlimited access to this system, 2 30m Check-in meetings with me, and 2 months of my personalized direction on which modules to do, in which order.
o Use 30m check-ins instead of 50 or 110m sessions to get specific troubleshooting advice and targeted recommendations for resources to use on your own, based on your Navigator data (see below).
​
- Walking Forward on Your Own:
o For 6mo after your last session, you may access the Webinars, Navigator, Compass, and one 30m check-in, free of charge.
​
o MARRIAGE NAVIGATOR - Take the full readings of your metrics to identify more specific things you can do to improve.
​
o ROUTE REFRESH - Feeling lost? Helpless or hopeless? Or something serious brewing? Need to send some data to Headquarters and have me send you back some quick recommendations? Schedule Meeting button above, Choose 30m meeting. * NOTE: If it has been more than 6mo since your last session, you may have to email Erica to reactivate your portal. 30m ROUTE REFRESH with a current COMPASS OR NAV Reading are free for the first 6mo after your final session ($150 thereafter, unless your financial situation qualifies for reduced fee).
​
o CLIMBING CHANNEL: This is my very own "web-radio" show, launching in 2022! Periodic Q&A webinars, attended virtually (anonymously or not) will cover core Marriage Mountaineering Topics that are inherent in the work I do with couples. Email erica@wellmarriagecenter.com for info on participating in the next Episode.
​
o MARRIAGE CHECK IN - If you want to renew and connect with your partner on things you have previously identified as helpful and just want to identify which ones to work on next.
​
o MARRIAGE CONDITIONING - If you feel your scores are low because you are just "out of shape" and need to renew your efforts to engage in basic marriage strengthening exercises. UNDER CONSTRUCTION: Email me for ETA.
o MARRIAGE PATHWAY - If you feel you are in good shape, but just need a reminder of the core practices that keep you on the right path. UNDER CONSTRUCTION: Email me for ETA.
​
o DISTRESS CALL - Something really serious happening right now? Need immediate assistance? Text me or email me (for previous clients only). If it is life threatening or you are at risk of harm, call 988 or 911.
