Does Marriage Counseling Work?

Marriage counseling is effective in helping couples solve their problems and improve their relationship. According to the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, 97% of surveyed couples reported that they received the help they needed from marriage counseling. A healthy marital relationship has positive impacts on physical and mental health, and vice versa—an unhealthy marriage has negative impacts on our well-being. Lifebulb’s marriage counselors understand the intricate nature of marriage and offer a holistic approach to marriage counseling.
