Can You Help Improve Your Relationship On Your Own?
If you are one of those who hesitates to go to the counselor for whatever reason, is there no hope for you?
There is still hope, and a lot at that. Your decision of not going to the counselor could be dictated by a number of reasons – inhibition, distance, money – but if you are willing to make a change in your relationship, you can do that without visiting a counselor. For starters, if it is money you are worried about, seek phone counseling.
Phone counseling is not only cost effective, it also helps you open up more as you are not facing the person you are talking to. However, if there is another reason you don’t want to talk to or meet a counselor, you can still bring a positive change in your relationship.
You can bring a change by employing ways to help your relationship. Yes, I am talking about self-help. Does it work? Does it make sense in a relationship? Well, as long as you are willing to improve your relationship, it will work; the moment you lose the interest in making your relationship better, nothing will work.
So, what kind of self-help material should you look for? Don’t go looking for random advice on the Internet or in magazines. Join a self-help program that offers you structured, focused, and well-meaning advice. And this advice is free!
Let me introduce you to a couple of self-help programs. There is a popular e-course on surviving an affair by Frank Gunzburg. You can also check out marriage counseling alternatives by Mort Fertel or self-help advice by Dr. Ellen.
