The Third Option is unique in several ways that make it so successful.
​
-
First: Since no section is really built on any other, you can enter the program at any time! That means you don't have to wait for up to 13 weeks for the program to start again if you missed week 1. You can, for example, join at week 7 and finish after week 6.
-
Second: You can attend alone! If your spouse wants to join you, great! But, if not, you can begin go through the weekly workshops by yourself, learning truly valuable skills for relationship as you go. And maybe your spouse will follow later.
You can expect a warm, welcoming, non-judgemental atmosphere where you will be free to work on YOU.
The Third Option Bay County will be taught by individuals and couples who have years of experience working with people in this community on marriage. People who are truly passionate about helping individuals and couples to improve in their communications and in their relationships.​
So, expect to learn, improve and become a MUCH better you, all in a supportive and caring environment.
