Marriage counseling, also known as couple therapy, helps couple to overcome their immediate problems, resolve conflict and improve their relationship. It also equips them to meet the future issues. Through counseling, a couple can get better insight into their deteriorating relationship, identify the crucial factors behind their differences and make rational decision rather than choosing the ultimate separate ways.

Marriage counseling can be availed to address many specific issues like: –
1. Communication problems
2. Financial difficulties
3. Conflicts about child rearing
4. Sexual difficulties
5. Infidelity
6. Family issues

Marriage counseling brings couples together for joint therapy sessions. However, this does not guarantee that talking about the problems with a marriage counselor would be easy. Sessions might pass in silence or the couple might bring their fight with them. The marriage therapist acts as mediator or referee and help cope with the resulting emotions and turmoil.

The role of a Marriage Therapist

Marriage counseling is provided by licensed therapist known as marriage and family therapist. While dealing with matrimonial disputes, counselors develop their own scientific support system through good listening skills and generally do not give their own assumptions and notions while counseling.

Marriage counseling sessions are specific for individual cases, since it involves unique issues and expectations. The counselor has different goals at different level of functioning. In some cases, marriage counseling session could be for a short duration, depending if the issue is not very serious like ego differences between a couple. And in some it may extend to weeks or months. However, in matters relating to physical abuse and torture, no attempt of counseling and mediation should be made and ‘Domestic Information report’ must be filed.
