Catholic Marriage Counseling Helping Couples Stay Together
By Janine Jensenoris
Marriage is one of the most traditional Christian values.
"Marriage is honorable among all," says Hebrews
13:4 NKJV. In Genesis 1:26, God told Adam and Eve to
"be fruitful and multiply." Lastly, in Malachai
2:14, it says "For the Lord God of Israel says
that He hates divorce, for it covers one’s garments
with violence."
Therefore, it makes sense that there would be such
a thing as Catholic marriage counseling to help preserve,
that most sacred union between man and woman. What people
may not know, is that all denominations are welcome
in this type of counseling for marriage, without fear
of conversion.
Pre-Marriage Counseling
One form of Catholic counseling happens before you
even get married. Pre-marriage counseling is generally
part of any Christian ceremony. Counseling for couples
may be done in sessions, as a weekend retreat or as
a group seminar.
As with any other marital counseling, you’ll learn
about conflict management, identifying wants or needs
and strengthening communication skills. Often this opportunity
is partially covered by insurance, with a small fee
based on an income-sensitive sliding scale. The idea
is that pitfalls can be prevented with a little bit
of skill building and knowledge prior to tying the knot.
Catholic Charities May Assist People With Money Difficulties
Marriage rebuilding is another type of Catholic marriage
counseling that has gained popularity over the years.
There are many reasons why couples fight, but one of
the main reasons is money. Catholic charities may be
able to assist a couple in acquiring food or getting
help with their heating bills for a few months until
they can get back on track with their finances and review
their options.
They can also preside over an open dialogue about spending
habits, as well as short and long term goals. Other
times couples may fight over child rearing, in which
case pastoral counselors can remind us to return to
God and raise our children with love and firm
resolve.
Saving Money And Strengthening Your Marriage
There are pros and cons to choosing Catholic marriage
counseling. On the plus side, you’ll be saving money,
strengthening your marriage and learning to incorporate
more spirituality into your life.
On the downside, you’re often not being counseled by
someone who has formal training in conflict management,
communication, psychology or marital issues. The group
seminars may not provide the type of personalized analysis
you would like, so if you feel you’re in need of some
solid solutions, then perhaps marriage therapists would
be more your speed.
