[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much of a chance to you give a marriage counselor if you feel like things are not working with them?  I do not feel comfortable with our counselor and feel like she is putting words in my mouth and minimizing my concerns.  We have had two sessions.  I don’t think this is because she is “challenging” me as I have been challenged by my individual therapist before and I have not felt uncomfortable/unheard.  DH is comfortable with her but I feel like we both should be comfortable with the person.  I also do not believe that she has read the intake forms we did before our first session.  Have you had an experience like this?  What happened?[/quote]

Both of you have to be comfortable, OP.  DH and I once had a recently divorced woman who was a little on the angry side, and blamed me (shocker!), which would be slightly more acceptable, if she was not paid to be helping us?? Unprofessional, all around. A good, qualified counselor will help you and DH BOTH communicate and mediate, OP.  If she is picking sides for any amount of time, or making you uncomfortable, you reserve every right to find someone who makes who comfortable. You are the paying client - paying for help, not trouble, OP. [/quote]
