What if my spouse won’t come to counseling?

What if my spouse won’t come to counseling? Whether it’s due to previous failed attempts or your partner is just not interested in working on things in counseling, it’s a challenge to work on a relationship with a partner that is not interested.

Try these 4 ways to get your spouse on board with you to get some professional marriage help.

The four steps include:

Not making ultimatums – no begging, threatening, etc
Trying the route of Co-parenting, closure, and possibly conscious uncoupling
Working on your own stuff
Trying the 180

All of which we’ve seen work at various stages with different couples. Definitely worth trying!
