This week I am going to keep it simple. If your marriage needs help, get it. Don't wait until it is too late. Resentment can build and can cause a wedge that makes everything more difficult. Your marriage is the foundation of your family. You and your partner are important role models to your kids. Children learn about love and affection and how to treat others by watching us, their parents. Many employees have benefits that cover some sort of counselling. The counsellor may need certain credentials, such as a degree in psychology. You may also have access to what is called an "employee assistance program". Through this program, you should be able to access resources for any life circumstances such as having a new baby, stress, relationship issues, personal issues, financial matters and much, much more. Your Employee Assistance Program can connect you with a marriage counsellor who can provide short term support to you and your spouse. A further option would be exploring counselling services that provide free or income-geared services.
Don't delay (easier said than done). Many couples wait 5, 10 or 20 years to address the issues in their relationship. From small to big, any issue that comes between you is worth working on. Little problems will be easier to fix than bigger and more complicated matters - many of which can escalate from the smaller things that are not dealt with. But don't worry, better late than never!
Have a great week!
