Why Marriage Counseling is a Game-Changer (and You Shouldn’t Wait to Go)

4.  Regular counseling sessions give a couple some regular uninterrupted time to fully focus on their marriage without distractions.

When we’re experiencing marriage troubles, we have a tendency to become very distant. We’re upset, and communication seems like a chore–if and when we’re talking at all. When we attend regular counseling sessions, we are forced to open up to our spouse and really talk through what we’ve been feeling and how we’ve been responding to the strain in our marriage. Counseling sessions give us time together to solely focus on the health of our marriage, and that is a beautiful (and pretty rare) thing when our days our filled to brim with meetings, running kids here and there, and everything in between.
