According to Kaufman counseling the reason most people avoid couples counseling is because “they are worried the counselor will recommend they break-up or divorce.”
It even happened to our company Founder, Christopher Isaac.
Originally trained as a dating coach, Chris realized that the skills for dating and the skills for long term relationships were vastly different.
What makes you attractive is a great (and necessary) skill for finding a quality partner, but it’s insufficient to keep a partner in the long-term. There comes a tipping point between dating and long-term relationships where the level of investment and commitment requires more vulnerability and complexity to be sustainable over the long-term.
It was this exact realization that prompted Chris and his then-girlfriend to seek couples counseling together. Sadly, their counselor saw that their relationship was “helpless” and the differences between them were too extreme so their counselor recommended that they call it quits. Needless to say Chris didn’t end the relationship and instead took matters (and knowledge) into his own hands.
Spoiler Alert: he managed to not only save his relationship, but he is now happily married and spends most of his time helping couples do the same for their relationships.
This is where Psychology Solutions Academy (PSA) was born. It was built as a resource with the most trusted and impactful sources of information to help non-married and married couples alike to save their relationship, marriage, and/or families.
So even if your relationship seems to be completely helpless – we promise – there is hope.
The two biggest difference between traditional forms of couples counseling and PSA is that
1) there are absolutely no opinions, bias, or value judgments about you or your relationship. Period.
2) there are no limitations to my time and availability that would otherwise be limited by what insurance companies are willing to pay for (And our costs are far more affordable even without insurance!).
We use a set of frameworks from cutting-edge research in psychology to save your relationship as fast as humanly possible.Traditionally, counselors hand you a worksheet or guidebook that will tell you to say things like:
“Instead of saying ‘You always do this!’
Try saying, ‘When I think you’re doing X, I feel ____.’”
PSA takes a more realistic and overall impactful approach. Sure, those worksheets and guidebooks have their value, but it’s not going to create radical change in your relationship overnight.
PSA can.
In fact, our clients show a 270% increase in relationship satisfaction in as little as 2 weeks. If this sounds radical and unlike anything you’ve heard of it’s because it is. We’re proud of that fact. What PSA offers is not taught by traditional forms of counseling/ therapy and our curriculum rivals that of many with a Ph. D.
Instead of billing you for months and months to keep our revenue stream going, we’re incentivized to make sure you don’t need us anymore by using a 3-phase process to create what Chris calls a “Forever Honeymoon Phase.”
First, we establish what Christopher Isaac calls Your Map in Phase 1 of 3. This helps you and your partner see where you are and where you want to be in the relationship.
The two biggest lessons in phase 1 can be found here for free! Just click here!
Second, we teach the most accurate personality assessment called the Big 5. Why? Because personality is shown to be found in children as early as 2 years old and is stable across one's lifetime. That means, the behaviors and tendencies that we see in others is often attributed to something so impacted by their genetics that we confuse social conditioning and beliefs with personality traits, but this distinction is incredibly important for transforming any relationship.
For example, when a child hides behind their mom’s leg because they’re afraid this is a strong indicator that they are sensitive to perceived threats and negative emotions; alternatively, if they run into the street fearless of danger they are unlikely to experience negative emotions very strongly.
So the question you have to ask is: do you criticize your partner for being too sensitive, too reactive, or too quick to shut down?
Almost everyone does.
You can see how the Big 5 answers many of the nature vs. nurture questions about your partner.
How much of their behavior has to do with their upbringing and how much of it is in their hardwired genes?
When we can get an accurate picture of someone's innate personality we can remove judgments and start finding workable solutions to compliment each other’s strengths and weaknesses.
Recognizing “weaknesses” is just the tip of the iceberg. PSA helps you get the exact results you want in your relationship!
Lastly, we teach you how to re-establish the honeymoon phase in your relationship in as little as 6 months or less.
Chris’ favorite case study involved a couple that has been together for 17 years. They were high school sweethearts and married young. They had two kids together, but as the years went by they began to distrust and resent each other. After an ugly divorce, they had a moment of vulnerability where they reconciled and decided to give it another try. After they moved back in with each other they remembered exactly why they divorced, but decided to try couples counseling only to get waitlisted. Desperate for solutions and help, they stumbled on My Psychology Solutions and reached out to Christopher Isaac for help. They were only enrolled in the program for 6 months before they no longer needed Chris or his services ever again.
