[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, so...

did anyone not married or engaged to a psycho person go through marriage counseling?  Did anyone go into it in good faith and have a decent experience?[/quote]

We had an, OK, experience. In retrospect, she was not a great fit for us (particularly for my husband) and he wasn't 100% open with her. But it improved some things, and it did at least prompt us. To spend some time each week focused on Each other and prompted us to discuss things outside of counseling.

Fast forward 7 years and my DH is in individual counseling and that is doing more to improve things than couples counseling did. I do, however, think that we could benefit from some sort of outside help with our communication. Right now we don't have time or money to commit to weekly sessions, but I'm thinking of seeing if his counselor might be willing to do 1 or 2 joint sessions, or to see if we can find a weekend workshop or something.

The financial aspect is really difficult, our insurance covers 80% after a $600 deductible. I definitely think about that in our sessions. [/quote]
