Dr. Bill Doherty wrote this article many years ago. He says that he used to follow the traditional neutral stance in marriage counseling, but for many years he has advised a different stance: the marriage is the patient. He is the founder of the Pro-Marriage Therapist Registry. More recently he has talked written about therapy for mixed agenda couples--the partner we would call the Stander he calls Leaning In and the other Leaning Out and he calls the counseling Discernment Counseling. Here is an article about that from a few years ago.
