A controlled separation is a structured agreement made with the help of a trained facilitator. It outlines the terms of the separation, providing a framework for both partners to follow. Some terms might include:
A controlled separation is not a legally binding document but an agreement made with your partner in the presence of a mediator or coach. The concept allows each party to engage in “active waiting,” where they individually work through their issues and examine what they need from the relationship.
This approach can be especially helpful when it is difficult to address these issues while living in a stressful environment together.
If your marriage is in crisis and you are unsure whether to stay or go, consider the third option: a controlled separation. Investing time in this process can help you and your partner discover the best decision for your relationship.
At Thriveworks Counseling in North Austin, we are here to support you through this challenging time. Our goal is to help couples find solutions and work towards a healthier, happier relationship.
