Has the need to check one more email, take one more call, or watch one more episode made family time and one-on-one communication with your spouse an impossibility? Do you feel that your partner has tuned you out in favor of constant connectivity to things outside your marriage? Dr. Colleen Hamilton returns to the show to examine what constitutes a normal level of distraction in our day to day lives and both the causes and effects of disconnecting from the relationship on both you and your spouse.
Colleen practices with Lepage Associates in Durham, NC, where she specializes in interpersonal relationships, depression and anxiety, children’s therapy, and parent coaching. You can find out more about Colleen by visiting the Lepage Associates website, or calling her office at 919.572.0000
Is it inevitable that as a marriage matures, satisfaction and communication suffer, or are we simply ill-equipped to manage the emotional changes that are a natural part of relationships? Dr. Bryce Kaye joins us to explore the main reasons marriages lose their verve and how understanding the reflexive nature of our emotions can help repair them, as well as discussing his new book, The Marriage First Aid Kit.
Bryce has more than 35 years of experience in therapy and marriage counseling and has a private practice in Cary, NC and Oriental, NC. You can find out more about The Marriage First Aid Kit at the book’s website, MarriageFirstAid.com, and you can order a copy from Amazon.com by clicking here

PAIRS workshops were created by Lori Gordon, Ph.D. over thirty years ago and have been frequently updated, based on cutting edge research and the feedback of thousands of participants. In this one day PAIRS ESSENTIALS workshop, couples will receive a tool box for enhanced communication, problem solving and emotional connection. Discover the essential skills that have helped thousands of couples create and sustain relationships that are an ongoing source of love, pleasure and happiness.
The PAIRS workshop takes place in a comfortable, private small group setting. The workshop format consists of brief lectures followed by coaching of practical, easy to use relationship-building tools, taught through interactive exercises with your partner. This is not group therapy and is not intended as a substitute for psychotherapy. . . This is a psycho-educational workshop meant to enhance couples’ relationships by providing group support and new skills. Couples will be encouraged to participate in the PAIRS exercises, but there will be no pressure for anyone to share private information with the group. .. only what is comfortable for you. Some participants have found they’ve learned a tremendous amount just from listening to others’ experiences. So reserved partners out there and chatty partners are all welcome!
