3 Signs to know.. It's time for Counseling

3 Signs to know.. Its' time for Counseling


1. You notice there is a problem in your Marriage. 

Often times we wait until we are on the verge of divorce to seek help. This is not effective. We should not wait until things are so bad to seek help. Going to your Pastor or Counselor before things get so bad is a better way to get on the road to fixing the issue. You know when something just is not right in your Marriage, so when you feel this, its time to act.


2. Communication has gotten negative.

It is hard to talk to your spouse if you two are mad at each other or are arguing. Usually one person is talking and the other person is waiting for their turn to talk. Neither of you are actually talking to hear each other and work on ways to fix the problem. If you have gotten to a place in your marriage where you are unable to communicate effectively and positively you may need a mediator that can come in and allow you both your chance to speak.Your Pastor or Counselor could provide the opportunity for you both to be heard. If you feel this is you, its time to act.

3. You think its time for divorce.

If your spouse says they want a divorce and you do not, it is definitely time to seek help. Access the situation and figure out whether you have any chance of saving your marriage. Did your spouse threaten divorce in a heated argument or have they already moved out? What has happened since your spouse said they want a divorce? At this point, thoughts are racing through your head, you noticed there were problems, you were unable to communicate with spouse, they state they want a divorce. Please seek help. At this point your Pastor or Counselor will be able to assist you two or maybe just you in an effort to save the marriage.
