Hashem will ultimately eliminate the yetzer hara so why not a Tzaddik eliminate certain yetzer haras

Once someone is married I believe of a Tzaddik should bless a husband or wife with any blessing that will eliminate emotional scarring on a family's soul, mostly for the sake of the children and wife, the husband also. There is a huge difference between an already sensitive husband with a spiritually healthy family praying for greater awareness to a wife's and child's emotional needs and a dad trapped in anger addiction. One needs an unconditional blessing to remove the very desire to act out

I believe HaRav Shalom would without hesitation agree with this but I’m writing it anyway

"A tzaddik is not doing a person any favor by granting that person an unconditional blessing." If a married person has an addiction or issue that will lead to a divorce (which will cause emotional scarring on the wife and child's soul for a lifetime) the Tzaddik is obligated to give a blessing to remove the addiction or issue for the sake of the children, wife, husband. To allow someone to learn "the hard way" by losing everything is placing a lesson above the family unit and that's wrong.
