Hi donewithit,

The first session will probably be a gentle introduction to what the process will involve. She certainly won't pile in and start telling you what she thinks about your marriage.

I've had counselling and know how nerve-wracking it is but I found it a great help.

I'm sure you and your husband will be fine and it will give you both the opportunity to talk over your problems in a calm way.

Good luck!

I think counseling can be so very helpful - and I think it is a sign that your DH thinks your marriage is worth trying to save too.

The process is about working through issues, not about assigning blame. I understand the nervousness, but I think it will be just fine.

Good luck at your counseling session. It is always hard but usually worth it.

Going to counseling shows strength and courage.

Just hang on. Counseling is the best thing that could happen.
