Has anyone had MOM counselling with Dr Joe Kort?
We are trying really hard to work on our marriage and keep coming back to the conclusion that we deeply love each other and do not want to divorce. We have had several really heavy conversations over the past few days and I am just not ready to quit without trying everything. He has always wanted to work on the marriage and never wanted me to know his struggles.

We are both willing to do as much work as we can and then decisions can be made down the track I guess.

I am in Australia and cannot find a single therapist specialising in MOM. I have watched every video form Dr Joe Kort and contacted him directly- he sees international, has availability but it’s $500USD (nearly 800aud for 75 min)

We are pretty much willing to put anything into repairing our marriage but has anyone seen Dr Kort? Is it worth that cost?

Or even better, are there any Aussies that could recommend a good counsellor? Our current one is lovely but I think it’s a bit out of her depth…

My husband and I went through the same troubles in New Zealand. We changed a couple of therapists and realised nobody is equipped for this. We had to work together (and sometimes against) the current one to make it work. He now specialises in MOMs here in NZ. Unfortunately, he is taking 6 months off. I can ask him for a recommendation though. In the meantime, join FB group on mixed orientation relationship, they run support groups every couple of weeks. Also, feel free to DM me - my husband and I are always happy to jump on a call and support you and share our experiences.

Good luck 💖

I initially read a bit of Joe Kort's stuff. But the feeling I got from him was a disinterest in women.
Is he gay?
