Just wondering if IC has been helpful to people in rebuilding their marriages. My wife has mentioned that she would like to go for IC but I am worried that it may be more harmful than helpful depending on the counsellor. Anyone have any experience or opinions on this?

If she feels the need to seek professional help dealing with her personal issues, then she may very well find some "good" outcome rather than some "harm" from the experience.

Thanks for the response.

I do truly feel that she does need to get IC because she suffers from depression and low self esteem. My concern is that she gets a good counselor, not a bad one. I myself went for some IC early in the year but ended up quitting because the counsellor that I had had a very worldly view of things and marriage. Basically, she said if someone is not happy, they should get out of the marriage. She said nothing about trying to work on things. To me that is all a load of crap.
