More than a marriage counseling listing, we are an actual movement in the field of marriage and family therapy. Finding a well qualified marriage counselor, especially one who is marriage friendly when your relationship is suffering can be downright hazardous. Many marriage therapists lack training and experience in marriage counseling, and many couples experience marriage therapy as lukewarm in supporting life-long commitment.
After a decade of speaking and writing on the dangers of marriage counseling, William J. Doherty (a highly respected marriage therapist, professor, writer and researcher) and marriage counselor Kathleen Wenger, created a resource to solve this devastating problem. Welcome to Marriage Friendly Therapists - in our third year and growing our pro-commitment marriage counseling directory every day.
Marriage Friendly Therapists is the only pro-commitment marriage counseling resource in the nation, designed to help support you in a time of marital crisis by carefully reviewing therapists who apply. Experience in marriage counseling isn't enough if you aren't supportive of helping couples who wish to save their marriage. This combination of a values orientation around commitment and the experience to work with couples in distress is what makes us unique to any other marriage counseling listing.
Whether you've been part of bad marriage counseling or have seen relatives or friends experience poor marriage counseling, we're glad you have found our trustworthy resource of top marriage counselors.
We at Marriage Friendly Therapists are unrelated to any religious or political organization so you can find marriage counseling across the spectrum from secular to religious. Our marriage counselors also practice many models of counseling so you can find a wide range of marriage therapy styles.
Marriage Friendly Therapists, founded by two marriage counselors, only accepts marriage counselors with years of training and experience in marriage and couples counseling. These marriage counselors value marriage and life-long commitment, and are dedicated to helping marriages succeed if at all possible.
