I'm sure it differs quite a bit with each SC. The man my RAH hired was really soft-spoken, patient & came with an arsenal of workbooks & experience. He slept on a cot & ate with us. He went to work & classes & to exercise with my RAH. I was worried it would be awkward & intrusive, but he was very polite & even though we have a small house & kids it worked out just fine. Our kids loved him. It brought calm to our home. When we did get into a fight, afterward the SC sat us down & helped us talk things through. Sometimes we'd have family meetings, but mostly he worked one-on-one with my RAH. The biggest difference in my RAH besides that he is not drinking & is abstaining from porn, etc, is that he really learned some skills to control & process his anger in a healthier manner. I was also shocked to see him praying regularly. He is still doing follow-up care with the SC by phone & e-mail.
