feels healthy, if you feel like things are totally out of control, or if you just feel like you need
help…we can help. No matter how complex the issues, we are relationship experts and have
the necessary experience in marriage counseling to work through even the toughest
marriage and family problems. You probably already understand that relationships present

help. Sometimes it takes someone with an outside perspective, experience, and a kind heart
to help you through the tough times and give you hope that things will get better. Get
started today by contacting Pathways Real Life Recovery for a couples counseling

Benefits of Marriage Therapy and Relationship Therapy
Marriage therapy or couples counseling sessions bring the two of you together with the
intention of fostering bonds of emotional closeness by helping you learn better ways to
communicate clearly. We can help you develop and maintain deeper levels of intimacy as
you learn how to more effectively understand and meet each other’s emotional needs and
develop a tool belt of skills to work through conflicts in a healthy way.
Here is a partial list of issues marriage counseling can help resolve:
A situation where you and your spouse hardly talk to each other, or your talk is mostly
negative in nature;
One or both partners feels afraid to talk to the other;
Sexual infidelity (or the contemplation thereof);
Financial secrecy or domination of household finances by one partner;
One or both of you is keeping secrets from the other;
Relationships where one partner has become more of an antagonist than a
teammate;
Affection that is often withheld as a form of punishment;

2. The belief that everything would work out if only the other person would change;
The pattern of spouses who are living separate lives and have become more like
roommates than partners;
Changes in your sex life that have lead to ongoing conflict;
Any issue that seems to have no resolution every time it comes up, or if you often find
yourselves arguing over the same little things.
The Importance of Premarital Counseling
Although premarital counseling initially had its start in religious institutions, its practical
applications in a non-religious setting have proven to be an invaluable way for couples to
connect before making their permanent commitment. Through premarital counseling,
couples of any gender, race or religion learn to identify and deal with areas of conflict that
may arise in their relationship. In addition to this, premarital counseling can prevent
situations that are small right now, from developing into mountains in the future.
Develops Communication Skills
When couples go to premarital counseling programs, they open up and talk together, with
an individual who has the needed training to help them come to terms and help them
better understand each other. Having this third party is no doubt one of the main benefits
of couples talking with a counselor before marriage. They tend to view each other more
compassionately while developing communication skills that will get them through the more
difficult times.
Brings Existing Issues out into the Open
Many couples have dysfunctional behaviors towards one another, which may include
control and addiction for example. A premarital counselor will address these issues and
help couples to correct them.
In a relationship, some partners have a tendency to isolate themselves when they have
difficulty expressing their feelings. This type of avoidance can cause serious issues in the
relationship. A therapist teaches the couple how to express their feelings instead of bottling
them up.
Helps Couples Plan for the Future
Premarital counseling therapy also helps couples actively plan for their future. Financial, or
family planning goals may be discussed, along with ways to accomplish these goals. A big
part of this is the couple discussing their expectations of one another.
2/6
3. People often enter into a marriage, having a completely different set of expectations of what
exactly it means to have a successful marriage. Through proper marital preparation, a
counselor compares and contrasts what each partner expects from the other and from the
relationship in general.
Finances are often a very touchy subject among married and unmarried couples alike. Many
people become uncomfortable when discussing finances. Spending and budgeting often
cause marital conflicts. It is best to establish financial precedents now, before even getting
married, to prevent conflict later.
Promotes Self-Discovery
A counselor will ask a lot of questions when they are working with an engaged couple. If you
really listen to your partner’s answers, you can learn so much about them. However, beyond
that, you can learn so much about yourself. Premarital counseling provides a safe space
where your partner may disclose information that they may have been reluctant to share
elsewhere. It is also space where it is okay for partners to share something that they may be
nervous or upset about regarding their partners.
Additional Benefits of Premarital Counseling
In premarital counseling, you are taught how to resolve conflict in the most stress-free
manner possible. Couples are also taught how to avoid letting toxic resentment build up in
their relationship, which can be detrimental to their love life. If both partners are
comfortable talking about it, the couples’ sex life can be discussed honestly and openly,
which can be quite helpful down the road. Lastly, participating in premarital counseling can
lend confidence to the relationship. Both partners may feel good at knowing that they have
done all they could do to start their marriage off on the right foot.
Pre-Marriage Counseling Can Help Couples Get Off to a Great Start
By helping couples who are dating or already engaged learn more about their differences
and more importantly, how to resolve them before actually getting married, pre-marriage
counseling presents an excellent opportunity to start your marriage off on the right foot.
Knowing how to use tools to effectively communicate without blaming is a powerful skill that
will serve you and your spouse well throughout your life together. Many couples may not
have discussed important issues that are likely to come up as partners. Pre-marital
counseling can walk a couple through these tough topics and help you identify areas that
are likely to come up between the two of you before they become grounds for divorce.
Does Marriage Counseling Really Work?
A number of studies indicate hat relationship counseling really does work to deepen
3/6
4. intimacy between partners and lower the risk of divorce, but there is a catch; marriage
counseling is generally only effective when BOTH parties are really committed to lovingly
working through the issues together. There are a number of conditions that can prevent
couples therapy sessions from actually being helpful; if one or both partners chooses not to
complete requested homework assignments designed to help them change negative
patterns of thinking and relating to their spouse, for example, then deeply ingrained
patterns of behavior are not likely to be reversed. If verbal or physical abuse causes one of
you to clam up while talking with your therapist, you may not get very far, or if either or
both of you are suffering from an addiction or mental illness which has not been treated or
addressed beforehand, relationship counseling is not likely to help your marriage. In some
cases, one or both partners has already decided to end the marriage before even beginning
therapy and simply uses the sessions as the opportunity to inform the other partner of their
decision.
