PT,

This is good to hear. Slow and steady. Don't let W in too easy. There's a lot of work to do ahead and don't sweep things under the rug. You would want to see a solutions-based MC counselor...preferably one with Gottman principles.

Also I've heard great things about Retrouaville. You guys might want to check it out as it focuses mainly on communication techniques. Not sure if they will accept gay couples as it's a Catholic organization.
