Ep 10. Polygamist Marriage Therapy

Polygamist Marriage Therapy follows the Brown family as they navigate their complicated relationships and address underlying issues in their marriage therapy sessions. The episode starts with Kody and his four wives, Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn, discussing their past disagreements and hurtful behaviors towards each other. Kody admits to being emotionally distant, while the wives express their frustrations with feeling neglected and unimportant.

Their therapist then suggests they participate in a unique therapy exercise where they each write down their expectations for their ideal marriage and share them with each other. This exercise helps the family understand each other's needs and wants in their marriage, and they realize they have more in common than they thought.

As the therapy sessions progress, they delve deeper into the root of their issues. The wives express their concerns about Kody's favoritism towards Robyn, which sparks a heated discussion about jealousy and insecurity within polygamous relationships. Kody acknowledges their concerns and assures them that he loves them all equally, but the wives still struggle with their insecurities.

The therapist then suggests couples therapy sessions and assigns each wife to a different session with Kody. In these sessions, each couple discusses their individual issues, including communication problems and trust issues. Janelle and Kody discuss their difficulties in communicating effectively, while Christine and Kody address their lack of intimacy. Meri and Kody work on rebuilding trust after Meri's emotional affair with someone she met online.

The episode ends with the family participating in an exercise where they all write down their hopes and dreams for their future as a family. Despite their challenges, the Browns are hopeful that they can work through their issues and build a stronger and more fulfilling family dynamic.

Polygamist Marriage Therapy offers a raw and honest look into the dynamics of a polygamous family and the challenges they face in their relationships.
