Why Marriage Counseling Does not Perform Any longer

By Dominique Marsh


You under no circumstances believed it would come about to you. But now right here you might be these days... faced with all the most important selection of your life.

Regardless of what circumstances led towards the current situation of the marriage, all that doesn't matter anymore. All that matters now is the fact that you have to uncover a answer for your marriage challenges. You desperately would like to preserve your family members together, however the problem is - you'd like a remedy that performs.

Most of the people feel that when marriages take a turn for the worst; the only remedy is marriage counseling.

But whenever you turn to marriage counseling, the concentrate is on behavior, action and doing. And the truth is, it is extremely probable that you just could DO all of the ideas, approaches and supplied to you by your marriage counselor, but nonetheless wind up unhappy and frustrated with one another. Why?

Pastor and international marriage expert, Mark Gungor's has one particular of your best answers I've noticed. He makes a great point that we just do not hear enough. Here's what he stated:

"If your view of marriage is flawed, each of the power and technique you will be making use of (such as our marriage will be better if we just do this or adjust that) will finish in failure...you need to perform on your marriage For the reason that you believe it is beneficial, not due to the fact you happen to be wanting to make it useful."

Did you realize that most marriage counselors don't think your marriage IS valuable? Quite a few of them have already divorced, so why would they see your marriage as any more useful than their very own?

They think marriage is only expendable and that the youngsters will likely be ok. They hold the belief that not all couples are meant to be with each other which can be why they are so quick to give up in your marriage.

Now I know I am generating a generalization about ALL marriage counselors and I do understand that you can find some "renegade" marriage counselors who tend not to adhere to these beliefs. But based on the countless "horror stories" from the couples I've worked with over the years, these counselors are handful of and far between.
