There Are Alternatives To Counseling: What Are They?
Hi, I'm Paul W. Anderson, Ph.D. at Couples Counselor Kansas City and I do not think couples counseling is for everyone!. You may not need counseling. Or you may simply not be ready for marriage therapy. However, there are options to counseling that can strengthen a marriage or relationship. This lens gives couples many suggestions for putting joy and emotional closeness back into your lives together
Reading and testing are alternatives. There are many resources online, in the library or book stores. There you can find excellent materials produced by sincere and competent authors.
Many couples improve or repair their relationships by going to seminars or workshops. Events such as Marriage Encounter are useful experiences for couples who have hit a snag and want the extra support to move on.
At times one partner wants to do counseling and the other does not. This can provide a very helpful lift to a marriage if you consult with a therapist who understands how to do this kind of marriage counseling with only one partner. Not all therapists understand how to do this kind of work.

ALERT!
Insurance companies do not cover "marriage" counseling. For couples in marriage counseling, the therapist must bill the service under one person's name and call it "individual" counseling. Some think this is fraud and do not work with insurance companies due to this prejudice against marriages.
