Real Stories of Love Renewed: Hear from Couples Who Transformed Their Relationships

Pathways to Empowerment is honored to have helped many couples in Overland Park and beyond rediscover connection, rebuild trust, and strengthen their relationships. Here’s what some clients have shared about their experiences.

"I came to therapy looking for a one trick solution only to find out that those do not exist. I now know the benefits of identifying and understanding the problem. Dr. Debra Neal has given me the insights and the tools to manage problems while forgoing the need to control results"

- Female, 29 - Couples Therapy

"My wife and I have been looking for a therapist to assist in our interracial marriage and Debra has been amazing at helping us discover what characteristics have been the cause of some issues. Looking forward to continuing our sessions"

- Male, 30 - Couples Therapy

"Looking back, one of the biggest ongoing benefits is that we “don’t argue as much. I got permission to take space when triggered then come back. She knows I am not leaving (permanently and will come back. We notice that we don't get triggered with each other as much. We handle life situations and interpersonal situations better, we are able to think differently. I came to counseling looking for a 3rd party to give us feedback, Debra was the third party."

- Male, 59 - Communication & Conflict

"Six weeks ago, I was ready to end my marriage of 26 years. We've been together for 32 years and have had very poor communication. There has been infidelity and decisions to invite others into our intimate settings. We were at a complete disconnect and with Debra's help we've been able to find hope in what felt like 'our hopeless situation'."

"I initially had unknown expectations out of couples therapy. Each session, I would feel nervous and anxious before each session but afterwards, I would feel much better. A good way to put it, before each session, I would have psychological dirty laundry but afterward I would feel as though my clothes were clean, pressed and folded neatly. "

- Male, Couples Therapy

"I came in to see Ms. Debra for gambling and infidelity a couple of months ago. Seeing what is really important in my life has definitely been eye-opening. Changing the way I  think and changing my thoughts and energy in a different direction has helped me tremendously. This is a work in process, but it (counseling ) is definitely helping my work and home life."

- Male, Gambling & Infidelity
