“It has helped us immensely with appreciating each other - the homework assignment to give an appreciation every day completely shifted our dynamic. I also think it’s helped because he now has language for feelings and needs, whereas he didn’t before, and I have more direct access to the underlying needs, and can figure out how easily when a feeling is actually a thought or a judgment. I feel like we’re trying to work together through conflict rather than pitted against each other. That’s huge!” — couple
