[QUOTE="nemesis, post: 2109759, member: 12082"] I'm glad you worked it out. In my opinion secular counselors are worse than no counselor. The whole field of therapeutic counseling/psychology/psychiatry has undergone a metamorphosis in the past quarter century. They've completely redefined "normality", etc. That's why we've got clinically insane people walking the streets in many cities. And this kind of incompetence has filtered into the realm of "family" counseling, as well. Also, you have to consider the minimal amount of education one has to have in order to hang out a shingle as a "counselor." In most places it's a mere Master's degree. I've recently gotten my third college diploma (changed careers) and I can tell you, a Masters level in psychology is not much. To the OP, as mentioned, try to find a "faith" based counselor. They will operate from the premise that it's in everyone's best interests to salvage the marriage. Then they work from there. If you need any more advice, feel free to PM me. In fact, I can maybe point you in the direction of some really valuable reading material. [/QUOTE]
