Many years and two children later, Kate and Dean's marriage is teetering on the edge of separation. In this session, Sarah attempts to help Kate and Dean navigate the foundational rupture that broke the trust between them, and the layers of sexual boundaries, shame, and disconnection that have piled up on top of them. 

Can Kate and Dean finally heal their relationship and rediscover love, appreciation and respect? Or is it time for them to walk away?
