How do you feel about marriage counseling?

Do you think it benfits your marriage? Some people don't think it works and others say it saves their marriages sometimes. What do you think?How do you feel about marriage counseling?
I think it helps because for one you are actually going so it shows that both of you want to work things out. Second, while in counseling you are told to say how you feel without being afraid of the other getting upset.





You can avoid counseling by just doing the latter in your everyday life.How do you feel about marriage counseling?
For a marriage in crisis, one of the most important thing that needs to be done is to get some perspective on what is happening. This is one area that marriage counseling will be helpful because it will help you to look at things and situations from other perspective.





From where you are standing things may look pretty clear. However, once you are able to see from another angle, things that you couldn鈥檛 understand before may make a lot of sense. Getting perspectives from other angles and vantage points will really be helpful in helping you fully understand what is happening so that you can then save the marriage in crisis.








Once you have been able to get some perspective on the crisis at hand and are getting counseling, you will have a lot of information and ideas to go off of. Those will help repair the damage that is done IF you are able to act on it. Knowing is half the battle but no battle half fought was ever won.





Therefore, I personally feel that marriage counseling is good and beneficial - provided the couple ACT on what needs to be done.
Some marriage counselors are better than others. My husband and I went to counseling and I got mad and stopped going. The counselor wanted to blame everything on me. I have known different couples who went to counseling and they are now divorced. I don't think that the counseling ever does work but it sometimes depends on how good the counselor is.
in Islam, there is an answer for everything:


4:35:


An-Nisa


And if ye fear a breach between them twain (the man and wife), appoint an arbiter from his folk and an arbiter from her folk. If they desire amendment Allah will make them of one mind. Lo! Allah is ever Knower, Aware. (35)

i think it wouldn't hurt to try! depending on ur spouse. i went to the emergency room a while back and my boyfriend for 2 years of course went with me.and we had a random counselor come into the room and started talking to us ..my boyfriend and i were kinda having trouble for a while and we brought it up to him after that little time talking with this counselor about our relationship things got better we both knew how each other felt and what we needed to work on... just try it have an open mind! good luck!
I think it takes both of the people involved to want to change and work on things. Im all for it but hope any future marriage of mine never needs that.
accepting jesus, by holding hands as a couple and asking after wards for God to help you with your problems and salvage your marriage is better way to resolve issues.
I think premarital counseling ought to be mandatory.
i thought it was a joke.
