Turn “They’ll never stop drinking”
into “Wait… they just said they might need help.”
The secret? Real change starts with the right approach.
Because when you stop arguing, shaming, nagging and walking on eggshells and start using research-backed strategies to respond to their drinking…
Getting them closer to sobriety doesn’t feel impossible anymore — it starts to feel real.
You’re doing everything you can to hold the relationship and yourself together.
This Is for You If…
– You want to stay with your partner, but not like this
– You’re tired of the constant cycle: drinking, promising to change, repeating
– You’ve read the books, joined the groups, and still feel stuck
– You’re trying so hard to help—but nothing is changing
– You want to support them without enabling
– You want to feel peace again—whether they get sober or not
– They’ve said “I’ll never stop drinking…” “I like drinking”… “I don’t have a problem, you do”… “I don’t need help”
If you’ve ever wondered, will they ever stop drinking…
and will they EVER see, they DO need help?
The 10 Steps To Move Your Partner Closer To Sobriety Guide & Workbook will teach you exactly how.
the truth?The moment where you threaten to move out if they don’t get help?
That dramatic rock-bottom moment where they suddenly quit drinking and beg for help?
It doesn’t work (and it’s not helping you and or their sobriety)
The real secret to helping your partner stop drinking? Small, strategic changes — made by you.
But here’s the problem…
Knowing what to do (and what actually helps) is HARD without guidance and support.
If you’re the one trying to help, it can feel deeply vulnerable.
You’re putting your heart out there, hoping they’ll finally see the problem.
But when they shut down, deny, or dismiss you — especially over and over — it hurts.
It can leave you feeling powerless, alone, or even questioning if things will ever change.
But here’s the truth: You’re not out of options.
You just haven’t been taught the tools that actually work — until now.
If you’re the one pulling back, it can feel just as hard.
You don’t want to give up on them — but when their drinking doesn’t change, when the lies keep coming, or when your efforts go ignored…
You start to shut down.
And the guilt? The anger? The fear? The resentment?
That can be just as painful.
It’s a lot of pressure.
And you’re both left feeling distant, frustrated, and stuck in the same exhausting patterns.
If any of this sounds painfully familiar, you’re not the only one.
I hear from women every day who are trying so hard to help — who love their partner, but feel like addiction has taken over the relationship.
Like nothing they say or do is making a difference.
And that makes sense.
No one ever taught you how to support a partner with addiction in a way that actually works.
You’ve read the books, maybe joined a support group…
But did anyone show you how to talk about their drinking without a fight?
Or how to set boundaries that actually work?
It’s not your fault. Most of us were never taught these skills — because most people don’t even know they exist.
But the skills do exist.
The 10 Steps to Move Your Partner Closer to Sobriety Guide & Workbook is inspired by and based on the CRAFT Method by Robert J. Meyers:
– 2x more effective than Al-Anon
– Up to 74% of partners get their loved one into treatment
– Reduces drinking before treatment even starts
– Builds connection and gives you more peace
You don’t have to wait for rock bottom or leave the relationship.
You just need the right tools — and a strategic way to use them.
SOBRIETY DOESN’T JUST MAGICALLY HAPPEN - IT TAKES MOTIVATION AND SUPPORT.
You want things to get better.
You love them.
And while you’re trying to hold everything together — the house, the kids, your emotions — there’s little time left to even think about strategy, support, or next steps.
So you fall into old patterns. Avoid the hard conversations.
Brace yourself for the next drinking episode.
You’re not alone — and you’re not doing anything wrong.
This isn’t just about love.
Moving them closer to sobriety is about skills.
Tools. Support.
Because sobriety doesn’t just happen.
It takes the right approach — and new strategies and steps..

More About Me
Mariah - The Founder of Healing Together
CRAFT-certified coach, and someone who’s been exactly where you are.
For years, I tried everything to fix my husband’s drinking. I begged, argued, cried, and felt like I was losing myself in the process. It wasn’t until I stopped trying to control his addiction — and started learning how to support real change — that everything shifted.
Now, he's sober. And I'm here to help other women feel the clarity, peace, and strength I once wished I had.
Healing Together is the community I needed when I felt most alone — and the one I’m so honored to offer you now.
