Can marriage counseling save my marriage? The answer varies depending on a number of factors, including your willingness to change, the depth of your marital issues, and how well you respond to your counselor's techniques. While marriage counseling may work wonders for one couple, it may make another couple’s marriage even worse. However, the marriage counseling is very effective. But finding the right one is very important.
When things go wrong it often becomes difficult to hear what the other one has to say. They, the counselor, listens to both of you and tells you both what the other is trying to say. They also help you find out of a problem is a real problem or masking a deeper issue.
We've actually done marriage counseling a few times in our marriage. Our first round of counseling was early on in our marriage as we were figuring out what our roles in our marriage would be. The second round was when my husband was unemployed and depressed. Both times, we worked on communication and how to convey what we think and feel. I feel it did work as we are still married and now feel pretty content and satisfied with each other.
