The therapist didn't suggest all that much during the session. It seemed like she was more laying out some ground work, telling us how men/women react, argue, go about things, how divorce affects the family and kids and the like.
She ended the session with how each of us could feel like losers. The one who wants the divorce can end up feeling like a loser when a little time has passed, they see their childrens' struggles and realize they are to blame. And/or time passes and they realize that getting divorced didn't automatically make them happy and solve all their problems. Then the LBS feels like a loser because they had no power to stop any of this and that they feel everything was taking away from them. She said feeling like a loser was a matter of choice and it's important for everyone to not let that happen.
