Yes, to a great extent, couples counseling does work and it works a magic on your mindset when you take part in it with interest. As an individual, everybody will have an opinion about themselves and on others. It is very difficult for us to change our mindset once we strongly believe in it. But, on counseling, you will get to know your negatives and your shortcomings better than self-analyzing. You cannot see your back but the other person can see. So, when a third person, after a careful deep observation, points out in a polished manner what you are missing and what you can do to overcome these shortcomings, you tend to accept it with open heart. Your ego will never let you accept your faults when it is pointed out by your spouse but when the same thing is done by a professional who you pay, you will believe in him and you will be prepared to abide by his words. Professional counseling definitely works in salvaging marriages without any doubt.
