15 May WHY DO YOU THINK THIS IS AN ISSUE IN YOUR MARRIAGE?
You will hold a total of 2 sessions with the couple: session 1: an introductory or intake session and session 2: a discussion of the PAIR2 test result and a termination discussion.
The recordings will be used to do the verbatim assignment which includes a word-for-word transcription (both the counselor’s and clients’ words) of a 5–8 minute segment of the session. You should also include revised responses (what you wished you would have said) and a self-awareness column (indicating what was going on internally during the session).
The initial (intake) session is to be designed to process all the necessary information regarding the couple’s relational situation and presenting problems. The primary purpose of the first session is to review informed consent, gather information, and establish rapport.
The other session is meant to focus on the interpretation of a relational instrument called the PAIR2 Test. Usually there are specific dynamics in the test that apply to the couple’s situation. Make sure to write your understanding of the dynamics revealed by the PAIR2 test report (based on the Interpretive Manual in your own words) so that you may provide the best explanation of each characteristic/couplet as you discuss them with the couple. After discussion of the PAIR2 test results, conclude by projecting the couple into the future. Explore ways to enhance the relationship, and limit problems presented during counseling. This can be accomplished by providing an applicable “tool” or skill building exercise that pertains to their presenting problem(s).
Ashley states, there is no respect, family should come first, no support, Seth on the other hand no freedom, too controlling, nothing is good enough. this will be in the new verbatim

(H) I enjoy spending time on the weekends with my friends going out having a beer to wind down and this is a big issue in my marriage
Why do you think this is an issue in your marriage?
You said this is an issue in your marriage. Does it have a negative impact on your marriage?
My thought is if this activity is negative, has he thought about stopping it?
(H) My wife says I do not spend any “quality” time with her
What is “quality” time to you? Do you know what your wife defines as quality time?
Your statement indicates that this is a view your wife has. Is there validity in her feelings?
My thought is if he feels that this is an issue or does he think it is a view only his wife has and is it justified.
(H) She says because we both put a lot of work hours in during the week she wants us to spend time away from from work together.
Do you understand why your wife wants you to spend time together?
How do you feel about your wife’s statement?
My thought is if the husband has paid any attention to his wife’s desires.
(W) It is not that I don’t want my husband to spend time with his friends on the weekends. I support my husband wanting to spend time with his friends but I value our time together.
So I am hearing you say that you are “ok” with your husband being away on the weekends?
So, you want your husband to spend more time with you and less time with his friends drinking?
Your statement suggests that you seem more worried about the drinking with this group of friends.
(W) Yes because he does not spend a lot of time with me when we have time off.
So, what I am hearing you say is that you feel frustrated because the two of you do not spend a lot of time together?
Asheley is not in agreement with Seth spending his free time with his friends drinking and could possibly be sending mixed messages.
H) I do not think that this is a real big issue because she never said it was so I just went out with my friends drinking..uh… I do not have to do this…I..uh…can spend more time at home…Um…Not a big deal.
So what you are saying Seth, is that you spent time with your friends because you were unaware of the way Asheley felt?
Your statement Seth indicates that you were not aware that Asheley did not support the time you spent with your friends at the games.
I do not think from this one particular conversation that Seth did not spend time away from Asheley intentionally. However, noted I think more needs to be explored.
