Why Use Decision Triangle Solutions®?

"Of course I mean well, why else would I do what I do?"
 

Even when you’ve made a bad decision, you offer some explanation for why at that moment it seemed to be the right thing to do.

 

But we’re not always that kind to others. 

 

It’s called the Fundamental Attribution Error. We attribute circumstances to why we do what we do, and character to why others do what they do. And when we see them making a decision that we think isn’t a good one, we think negatively of their character.

 

When that person is someone close to you, you see them as a possible threat. 

​

The solution? Decision Triangle!

The Problem? You know you mean well.

The Decision Triangle Solutions® approach teaches you to slow down, to not “flinch” in response to a perceived threat, and to learn safe ways to explore the underlying reasons why both of you do what you do and feel how you feel. It’s a way to really get to know each other at a deeper level.

 

This process may feel awkward at first as you and your partner develop new ways of communicating. 

 

You may find that revealing what you really want feels risky: you can get laughed at or rejected by the very person you reach to for support. 

 

And really listening to your partner may make you realize that your way was actually not the best way to do something. And that can be embarrassing. 

​

In your treatment with me, I will support you in this process. You will learn how to safely express an issue to minimize resentment, hard-feelings, and score-keeping which could alleviate issues in the short term but cause problems down the line. 

 

Using the Decision Triangle Solutions® method will help you establish this relationship as a trusted partnership that can handle whatever challenges and uncertainties you encounter together.
