About this series
Rooted in Attachment Theory, Lasting helps couples openly discuss a real attachment injury from their relationship in healthy ways.
First, we teach the core concepts. Then, we help couples identify their conflict cycle and the role that each of them plays in it. Next, we help them unpack a specific attachment injury for their partner and the surrounding emotional layers.
Wrapping up, we show them how they can take steps toward forgiveness. Remarkably, 9 out of 10 couples who take this series report feeling more prepared to walk towards healing.

So, how do therapists use Lasting?
Lasting is best integrated when you collaborate with your client on how it fits into their plan. Here are the best uses for our app:
Building and repairing emotional connection
Managing conflict
Communicating more openly (especially about emotions)
Rebuilding trust
Overcoming low sexual desire
Processing difficult emotions from attachment injuries and infidelities
Growing appreciation
If these issues describe your clients, then here are a few suggestions:
Assign Lasting “homework” in between sessions to help clients practice every day. Doing this also engages your client’s partner, who may not be willing to join couples therapy, and you can receive PDFs of their sessions.
See homework examples.→You can use the work they've completed in Lasting as a starting point for a therapy session. Ask them, "What was most helpful?" Maybe even, "What’s something that surfaced while you and your partner were using Lasting that you want to discuss?"
If you are working with both partners, then you can help them discuss their session comparisons, especially where they may disagree.
