Steven has trained through Mark & Debra Laasar (SA Specialists and Author’s) and believes as they do that “the kind of help that transforms the pain around broken relationship has three critical components.  Each component is like a leg of a three-legged stool.  The stool represents your marriage/relationship and each leg represents one critical component of recovery…yours, mine and ours.  All three legs are critical and when one leg is missing, the stool does not stand.  The stool represents healthy marriage/relationship” – one developing deep intimacy in all areas of the relationship.
