Online marriage counselling - free advice guide UK

Find Marriage Counselling Guides Online at:

One of the enormous advantages of online marriage counselling – which will only become greater, one hopes, as time goes on – is the safe and rapid passage the information superhighway affords to expert advice. You don’t have to visit a marriage counselling service any more, you can simply email them. Relate (formerly Britain’s Marriage Guidance Council) is one organisation to offer a free online marriage counselling service – you send in your question to Relate and receive a personal reply. There are many online counselling services in the UK and worldwide which work on a question-and-answer basis or with work sheets - Marriage Matters Online is a good place to start.

As when choosing any counsellor, it’s important to find out as much as you can about the experience and training of counsellors at the online service you are considering. Bear in mind that you may get what you pay for, although there are some free services which are worth investigating. The best way to find a reliable online therapist could be to contact an independent national or regional organisation such as the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapists, which has a therapist locator. Regular counselling practices in the US also now offer guidance via the internet and use it keep to in touch with clients who have moved away from their area.

Online marriage counselling has obvious limitations. There is no substitute in some circumstances for a direct discussion. All the more so in the case of relationship counselling. It is also not recommended for counselling which involves issues of abuse or self-harm. What online marriage counselling may be able to do, though, is help you decide whether to go to a counsellor and who to go to. It may help you become aware of areas and issues you and your partner wish to explore, and reading about the experiences of others could reduce anxieties you may be feeling about your own marriage. Knowledge is often an antidote to fear, and calm communication can draw the poison from emotional wounds.
