My Wife Is A Therapist is hosted by Carlyle and Kerese Collins. Carlyle, a scientist, is logical, disciplined and exact. Kerese, a psychotherapist, is an emotional, creative story-teller. When these two Guyanese come together, the entertainment quickly reaches comical proportions. Because despite their differences, they both love to laugh.
Communication is often cited as one of the greatest challenges couples face in their relationships. In this podcast, they candidly review adaptations of conversations they’ve had and they share lessons they're learning, as well as tips for improving love.

Team?!
Family is such an important gift. They can also be one of the trickiest groups to work with.
No family is perfect. But whatever happens, at the end of the day, what we want is to preserve the relationships with those nearest and dearest to us.
So how do we do that when the values, choices or behaviours of the individuals in our family seem to clash with ours?
And when we venture out to create our own family, how do we protect the integrity of what we’re trying to build, while honouring the place of our beginning?
Let’s get into it.

Don't Take Me For Granted
Are you taking your partner for granted?
Have you been promising to do better without any real improvement?

What small things can you do to show your spouse you love and value them?

Communi-who?
How are you and your partner with “community”?
Are you of the ‘just the two of us’ persuasion?
Some things are just private. But even the healthiest couples need other people and a little perspective sometimes. What are the potential benefits and pitfalls of being ‘in community’ with others? What might this community look like?
Can there be more to vulnerability than the exposure of our relationship’s flaws?
