Reconciliation and Family Strengthening

Dr. William ("Bill") Doherty is an expert in the area of marriage and families whose work focuses in part on strengthening the family unit. The only thing that rivals parenting for sheer challenge in today’s world is marriage, which holds our fondest hopes and our worst fears about permanence of relationships in life. A core part of Dr. Doherty's mission is to restore a culture of hope about marriage by showing how couples can be intentional about their marriage and by promoting community and cultural support for marriage. Dr. Doherty believes that we have to do marriage better for our sake and for our children. The Center is proud to include Dr. Doherty's work in one small section of our Children in Between Online course (formerly Children in the Middle). Couples who receive the Center's skills-based training sometimes have second thoughts about their divorce. Dr. Doherty speaks to several options that exist for couples who may want to consider reconciliation (if appropriate). Dr. Doherty's site is filled with useful resources for couples, professionals, and more.
