About this book
Helping Couples on the Brink of Divorce, by Steven M. Harris, gives clinicians a session-by-session guide to discernment counseling, a five-session intervention for couples who lean different ways about divorce or separation. This 2026 second edition from the American Psychological Association is a 265-page paperback.
The goal of discernment counseling is for couples to gain clarity and confidence about a direction for the relationship among three paths: keeping the status quo, divorce or separation, or entering couples therapy. The book walks through working with the couple together and with each partner individually, and it covers challenges such as when one partner is having an affair.
This edition adds new case examples and a chapter that demonstrates the full protocol in action.
