Armored Polar Bear asked:


My boyfriend and I have been together for 8 years. We are interested in going to couples counseling in order to work on any issues we have before moving forward. We both have health insurance but with two separate insurance companies. Do therapists typically bill both insurances (meaning we need to find someone that accepts both)? Is the therapy billed differently because its more than one person being serviced, meaning that couples therapy has to be specifically covered by our insurance companies? Any information would be great, thanks!

My husband left me and has not tried to work out the problems in our relationship before leaving. Plus the fact that he is having an affair. Can I contest a divorce and have the court order counseling before proceeding with a divorce?

She has lived at her dads for 1month we have been married 5yrs together 11yrs she is moving to bay area with pot dealing cousin she saw porn on our computer says she cant look at me the same wants legal seperation i have been to counseling myself 4wks

seriously asked:


don’t you think that if a relationship gets to the point where a third party needs to get involved in order for the couple to communicate, then the relationship is already dead in the water?
My husband likes to keep our arguments or disagreements between us and not let others get involved in our business.

Has anyone here ever gone through marriage counseling and then came out with a stronger marriage?
Or do you think it’s a scam that plays on people’s emotions and last hopes for relationships that are already over?

What are some key things that you do in your relationship to keep communication open and effective?

Lady Bug asked:


I know the LMFT can provide marriage and family therapy, but can a Licensed Clinical Social Worker provide the same type of counseling for marriages and families?

Ambre asked:


My fiance and I have premarital counseling in about 2 weeks. He’s an adult, but I’m a minor and in order for us to get our marriage license we have to go to premarital counseling. Basically, I’m wondering what they ask, or what goes on in the counseling room?

Stories will be helpful, as well.

Holly asked:


I’m writing a persuasive speech on how couples divorcing who have children should attend counseling. Many couples probably would not be able to afford this. Are there any ways that counseling can be free for these couples by money from our taxes or government funding? And if so, is there any reliable internet source where I can find this information? Thanks.
