An Alternative to Marriage Counseling will Work for YouEven though you may have done a search for marriage counseling, I'm going to convince you that no matter how hopeless or far gone you think your marriage is, marriage counseling is not the solution. "Why?" In marriage counseling, both of you will be discussing all the pain and hurt that has brought you to this point. That is not going to make you walk out of a marriage counselor's office feeling closer and more connected. If you were in bad shape before going to marriage counseling, wait until you see how distant you'll feel after marriage counseling.My programs work and are so much more effective than marriage counseling because you don't rehash old wounds. You don't talk at all. You just listen. By listening to what I have to say, the stories I tell, and the examples I give from my own life, you wiil know exactly what to say and do to feel closer and more connected. Most couples who have had years of marriage counseling with no results and finally find me say, "All you do, week after week is rehash all the past wounds, where your program gave us a fresh start." The truth is that you too could use a fresh start! If you don't learn how to fulfill each other's needs, all you will have is continued heartache and disappointment. Marriage Counseling Can be IntimidatingWhen you use traditional marriage counseling, it is always more difficult for one spouse than it is for the other. While one finds it easy to share their whole life with a stranger, the other feels that their personal life is private. The one who is able to express themselves more easily is the one who has the upper hand in marriage counseling. The more private, shy person, is at a disadvantage because they are not comfortable verbalizing their feelings. With my programs, you won't be doing any talking. You will both be listening to your own, individual programs in complete privacy. Most people find it convenient and easy to listen for 15 minutes while going to and from work. When you are finished, you will know why your mate fell in love with you, what went wrong, and exactly what to say and do to make it right, bringing back the feelings you had when you first fell in love."I knew my marriage was on its last leg. My husband was cold and indifferent to me. We went to marriage counseling and he just sat there counting the minutes till it was over. Since would not open up to the marriage counselor, I ended up seeeing no point to going anymore. Before our final session, the marriage counselor gave us your programs and asked us both to listen to them. My husband was so relieved that he did not have to go to marriage counseling anymore that he agreed to listen. I saw a change in him almost immediately! Every day we got closer and closer. We just got back from Hawaii which was a second honeymoon for us. I sent the counselor a 'Thank You' note for giving us your programs, but it is you that deserves our gratitude. Although you don't know us, we feel so connected to you and your programs have changed our lives." Penny H. - Hartford, CT A Marriage Counseling Alternative That WorksEvery day, thousands of women and men hear, "I can't do this anymore!" As painful as those words are, they are the truth. How many ways and how many times does someone have to tell you, "What we are doing is not working!" So, instead of attending marriage counseling, where you discuss the past, why not find an alternative to marriage counseling that is more effective, faster, and moves you forward instead of backwards in time.In my years of experience I have found that if your mate was in love with you in the beginning, they can feel like that again, even if you have been told by family, friends and a marriage counselor that there is no hope for your relationship. "My wife told me that she didn't love me anymore, was not sure she had ever loved me, and that she wanted a divorce. She finally agreed to go to marriage counseling. We went to a highly recommended marriage counselor in our area who said that he would not waste our time and would let us know within three sessions whether our marriage had a chance to survice. After our third session, the marriage counselor told us, "Once the chemistry is gone, you can never get it back. My recommendation is for you to get a legal separation that will, in all honesty, lead to a divorce." He told me that I had to accept that our marriage was over and that we should live separate lives. I have no doubt at all that had we listened to this counselor, we would be divorced by now. Instead, we found you and realized that we had never stopped loving each other. There was just a lot of "stuff" that had gotten in the way. Your positive approach makes so much sense it has not only affected us as a couple but our children as well." Harvey W - Long Beach, N.Y. Back to Dr. Ellen's Marriage Advice |
