If parenting stress is a issue/obstacle/problem the same theory would need to be taught to you and your H from a solutions based standpoint.
You make a good point. I have spent years in counselling (IC) and months in MC, but I've never experienced solution-based counselling. I can see that it may operate very differently from what I am used to. If I ever had the opportunity to do MC, finding someone experienced in solution-based counselling would be a priority for me.
