The 5-Minute Marriage Argument Reset
Most arguments don't go wrong because of what the fight is about. They go wrong in the first ninety seconds, before either of you has said the thing you actually mean. This is the page I hand couples for exactly that moment.
What it is
Three pages. A short explanation of why conflict escalates, four sentences you can actually say out loud, and a worksheet you fill in together when things are calm.
Who it's for
Married couples who love each other and keep having the same fight anyway. It is a tool for one specific moment, not a diagnosis, a program, or a test.
Who wrote it
Aaron Delay, LPC-MHSP and credentialed minister. He founded a counseling practice that sees roughly ten thousand sessions a year. This came out of that room.
This resource is educational and is not psychotherapy, diagnosis, or treatment, and it does not create a therapist–client relationship. If you are in crisis or need clinical care, please contact a licensed provider in your state or call or text 988.
