Northstarr asked:


My fiancée and I are going to our first counseling session later today. Our hope is that it will enable us to overcome some issues that are preventing us from having better intimate experiences with each other. This was my idea. Has anyone reading this made great strides in their relationship that they never dreamed possible due to counseling? My fiancée feels that it there is always going to be a problem in life and that I’m reaching for a perfect relationship. Something that is unobtainable. She open to going, but she has more of a pessimistic attitude than I. I feel that if you’re in a relationship that you may as well give it 100% and make it the best experience possible or your wasting your time and your partner’s time. The counseling will be fairly expensive, but I feel that we are worth it. Am I reaching for perfection? , How effective is couples / marriage counseling?

Is there a way to find inexpensive, but quality, marriage counseling?

I have been unemployed for 4 months and had no luck finding work. The stress is really affecting my marriage, which had problems in the first place, and I really feel we need to see someone, but we have very little money to do so. Any suggestions on “charity cases” counseling?
