Marriage, Family and Relationship Counseling
Signs Of Need:
Are There Issues In Your Relationship?
-
Obsessively thinking about divorce
-
Contact between partners diminishes
- Communication
and time spent together become less and less
-
Are you attacking, provoking, blaming, being overly
critical of your partner?
-
One or both partners seem to be distant, distracted,
or miles away in their thoughts
-
Is your sex life different, diminishing, or non-existant?
With divorce rates at 50%, couples face the most
severe challenges to relationship stability ever.
Research shows that on average, couples wait six years
from the first signs of problems before they seek
help.
A good counselor is a good strategy resource. While
you can, and should, think of ways to solve your
marital problems independently, a marriage counselor
knows how to solve problems just like yours and the
strategy should make sense to you. In fact, the
strategy should encourage the belief that problems
will be over soon. Counselors often obtain special
training for many common marital problems, such as
sexual incompatibility and financial conflicts. Our
clinicians can document a high rate of success in
finding solutions to those problems.
The three most important reasons to find a marriage
counselor are
- To help you avoid or overcome
painful emotional reactions to the process of solving
marital problems
- To motivate you to complete your
plan to restore romantic love to your marriage
- To help you think of strategies that will achieve
your goal.
