Hi Lynn,
Find her love language, speak it when you get a chance. It may be words of affirmation as WAWed mentions above, it may be acts of service, gifts, or just time spent with her.

This is her journey, she will view your help right now as anything but that, and it will prolong the process.

When she talks R with you validate, validate, validate.

use the time inbetween to view your role in the R, in how it has affected how she feels now & see if you can see the R. through her eyes.

If she tells you things she wishes were different, if you can do them for you.. do them.. we WAW notice.

It's going to be really hard for you to not tell her what you want right now, but resist the urge. We view it as pressure and pull farther away. She wants to focus on meeting her needs right now, not feel guilty that she is not meeting yours. Guilt drives us further away.

Peace to you.

Taking the road less traveled because those encountered on the way may be just as unique.
