MAIN Family Relationships Marriage Counseling

What's a marriage worth?

When disagreements seem to come too often, and the good times seem too far in the past, it may be time for some good professional outside help.

Even for two people who are completely committed to each other, the frustration of everyday concerns may begin to mount.

Whether it's triggered by money problems, children or teens, job-related stress, sexual or intimacy issues, or jealousy and mistrust - the result is often unresolved hurt and resentment on either side of a relationship.

In an effort at self preservation, partners often will back into their respective corners in silence, but couples therapy can often provide a common ground for restarting the conversation.

Professional marriage counseling is simply a safe place to talk about and explore the dynamics of marital conflict, or may even lead to a 'eureka' moment where long-held misunderstandings are suddenly resolved.

Is marriage counseling worth the risk of fixing a "broken" relationship? For many couples, the answer is resounding yes.
