Married and cohabitating couples experience significant life stressors, including financial strain, occupational stress, issues with pregnancy and child-rearing, infidelity, and difficulties with intimacy. When couples struggle to manage these stressors, they experience increased levels of individual stress, reduced mental and physical health, and impairment in social and occupational domains. These stressors also contribute to greater risk for decreased or conflictual communication, lower relationship satisfaction, and increased risk of relationship dissolution. Although many forms of couple therapy are available to these couples, only 70% will experience benefits of decreased martial distress and increases marital satisfaction. The construct of resilience is receiving increasing attention in interventions to manage stress. Resilience is conceptualized as the ability to endure, adapt, and thrive through adversity. Research suggests resilience can be developed and maintained through relationships with others. Within the context of romantic relationships, there is suggestion that utilization of resilience tenants can assist couples in reducing distress, increasing connection with their partner, and improving their abilities to adapt and adjust. Therefore, the purpose of this dissertation was to develop a resilience-oriented stress-management intervention for use in the context of couple therapy. The content and structure of the Arrow intervention was informed by literature on stress in couples, couple therapy interventions, resilience and coping, as well as Harrell's Resilience and Reconnection stress management program. A preliminary evaluation of the program was completed by two MFTs and one psychologist with several years of experience working with couples. Strengths, weaknesses, and suggestions for the further development of the program and manual are provided. Practical implications and recommendations for future studies are also presented.
