I just today came to know about those when I was changing channels and saw a movie playing with title how to train my husband or something like that. So I started watching it and it was an OK kind of a movie not that great although from there I came to know about Marriage Therapist but even her marriage life was all messed up in the movie. Are you aware of marriage therapist? Do you think they are any helpful?

They are definitely real, but I don’t think they are all that helpful

@Butterfingers Well that’s the problem, you don’t know for sure who’s giving you good advice and who’s giving you bad advice

I never had need of one, but my son used one. It was too late to save their marriage. Once a cheater and liar, always a cheater and liar.

I haven't encountered one and I don't wish to lol...but yeah I've heard about marriage counsellors and know that they try to settle disputes between couples, especially at the courts, when the couples are considering divorce.

@Butterfingers Yes not very common probably because the elders in the family play an integral part in the family setup as such and keep guiding the couple. Who could be better counsellors than them in case of any issues!

You’d be amazed at how much ridiculous, fictional-sounding stuff is actually real

There are many marriage therapists in the US. Some are good, some not. If you ever look for one, be sure they share your values about life.

@Butterfingers I have known about them and also read about their Q&A in magazines. They practice privately and also work in family courts to resolve family disputes.
