Q.5 CASE STUDY:

Wendy is a 54 year old woman who has two adult children and
has been married for twenty-nine years. Her husband, Steve, has
recently and unexpectedly informed her that he no longer loves
her and that he wants a divorce. Wendy was shocked to hear this,
and she now reports that she is constantly crying and feels
extremely anxious. Wendy has not told anyone about this
situation, although she and Steve have agreed to explain his
decision to their children within the week.

Background
Wendy attended eighteen appointments over an eight month
period. The first six appointments were held weekly, the next ten
were fortnightly, and the last two were spaced out over two
months. Wendy and Steve have been married for twenty-nine
years and have lived in the same area for all of that time. They
have two children ? Damien 24 years of age, and Amanda 26
years. Damien still lives at home with his parents.

Wendy has not yet told anyone, neither family nor friends, about
her situation and becomes anxious when she considers doing this.
She and Steve have agreed to tell their children within the next
week, and Steve plans to move out of the family home at that
time. Wendy and Steve are no longer sleeping in the same bed,
although up until his recent disclosure, they had been sleeping
together and kissing and hugging from time to time. Wendy?s
reported anxiety/depression symptoms included: difficulty
sleeping, difficulty relaxing, thinking about Steve/their
marriage/the future all the time, feeling exhausted, feeling
?tightness? in her chest and her throat, a loss of appetite, crying
several times every day, and a loss of interest in ?everything?

Session Details
In the initial appointment, Wendy reported a very distressing
couple of weeks. She began to describe her situation starting at
twelve months ago when Steve began attending a gym and reading
personal development books. Wendy stated that at that time, Steve
seemed to change, and she thought it was a part of a ?mid-life
crisis? that he would eventually recover from. Around the same
time, Wendy confronted Steve because she felt that they weren?t
communicating much and she was feeling ?left out? of his new
interests. At that time, Steve told Wendy that he thought they were
?drifting apart?. As a result of this conversation, Wendy then
made a concentrated effort to improve things ? she created
opportunities for them to be together, she encouraged their
discussions with one much improved by her efforts over the last
twelve months. When Steve told her over dinner a week ago that
he didn?t feel that he loved her anymore and that he would like a
divorce, Wendy was shocked and devastated. She shared more of
herself and her feelings in their conversations. When Wendy
raised fears of her ability to accomplish the goals she had set
herself, she had demonstrated in counselling, and in her ability to
handle Steve?s decision. In particular, she could see her own
strength, her courage, and her honesty with herself as attributes
that could get her through. Gradually, Wendy became more
assertive and started living her life ?as if? he would not come
back, even though she continued to hope that he would return.
