Disclaimer: Not all relationships are safe. Whether it be emotionally, physically, sexually, financially or psychologically, if you don’t feel comfortable sharing your thoughts at this time with your partner, please don’t.

Hays County Women’s Center (also Men) is the closest center with an active helpline.
INTRODUCTION
Sometimes issues that have been aggravating become more clear quickly, misunderstandings corrected or resentments melted. Other times issues become more painful and confusing upon direct observation.
This intake is designed to ensure your feedback is up to date with the exposition part of the couple’s work: the why, what’s happened and how, before you form decisions on what’s next.
