• Many couples attend marriage counselling to try and repair their marriage before turning to divorce.
• A marriage counsellor can also help you to decide whether or not divorce is the answer to your problems, or, once you have decided on divorce, make the process of divorce more amicable.
• A marriage counsellor can help you work through both the emotional and practical effects of your decision to divorce

Prolonged fighting, unresolved conflict, ethical or cultural differences, infidelity or lost love: there are many reasons why married couples think about ending a marriage in divorce. However, divorce is almost always a drastic step of last resort for an unhappy couple, and one which has a long lasting impact on your children (if you have any), your extended family, your financial and residential circumstances, and often your faith in relationships.

Due to the significant impact of divorce, many couples turn to marriage counselling before making the final decision whether to stay together or call it quits. Marriage counselling can help repair a marriage by improving communication, reducing arguments, restoring intimacy, increasing trust, resolving impasses and reminding a couple what they love about each and why they decided to get married in the first place
