Myself and my husband went for Councelling about 3 year's ago. I felt that the plans that were put in place - i.e sit and talk to one another, go out together ect.... were great in an ideal world but on a day to day basis were hard for 2 people who wern't getting on at the time anyway hard to put into place!! Don;t get me wrong I did think it was helpful - maybe our situation had gone too far to fix

Needless to say we seperated earlier this year :(:(

I went and had a terrible experience. The counsellor jumped to a conclusion and wouldn't let go until he had convinced my wife he was right. In hindsight I should have challenged him because I knew he was wrong. He actually had her convinced it was all her fault. Only caused more damaged to the relationship which ultimately ended. She ended up going to psychotherapy. And yes this was a counsellor from a highly regarded marriage counselling service. Don't be afraid to question and speak up. Don't be intimidated like I was.
