Questions to Ask a Marriage Therapist

Counselors on The National Registry of Marriage Friendly Therapistssm should be able and willing to answer the following.

"What is your experience working with couples in my situation?"

Here you can describe your unique situation—premarital, cohabiting, remarried, same sex, dealing with chronic medical illness, etc. The therapist should be willing to be frank about his or her experience and willingness to work with couples in your situation.
