This is important. Hoping to see marriages thrive, but not helping men to overcome their silence in the face of their emotional distress will not work. We need to change this narrative. We need to let it be known that it is okay to talk about their pain and distress, for the sake of marriages and the people around these men.

Can we make our reality better than our dreams? Sometimes we believe that marriage should be better than our dreams. Live your reality and make your reality more like your dreams. Choose to love your spouse each day to move closer to the love you dream of. https://brandoncoussenslmft.com/

The creation of marriage is a debated topic. I am currently doing a series on why did God create marriage. This is a difficult topic, but I believe the questions and information it generates can help couples regain their ability to have the type of marriage you desire. God has the answers and knowing his intent helps us to understand how to make our relationship what it was intended to be. https://brandoncoussenslmft.com/9-reasons-for-gods-design-/

Marriages that keep God at the head of their relationship fulfill His vision for a healthy union. #love #marriage #healthyrelationships https://brandoncoussenslmft.com/9-reasons-for-gods-design-/

God's plan for marriage is not always talked about. Through this new post series, I am exploring God's design for marriage and how it helps us understand what a healthy marriage should look like. https://brandoncoussenslmft.com/9-reasons-for-gods-design-/

New Post: This is a companion post to a previous post about 5 ways lying hurts marriage. I have a lot of people look up the previous post, so I thought I would do a companion post. Both of these post feel incomplete, but I may expand them at some point. ENJOY! http://brandoncoussenslmft.com/5-ways-honesty-improves-mar/

This blog entry is probably my favorite one I have written in this series about improving your marriage during quarantine. I know it might seem silly, but I really want couples to know they can have a good relationship if they put forth a little effort every day. These blog post don't just apply to quarantine. I think they apply to relationships at all times. If you think any of my posts will help someone, please share them!
