Consider Separation as a Part of Your Marriage Counseling Process
Can a marital separation save a marriage? Usually my opinion is: it depends… Whether the separation will help or hurt the marriage is unknown, unless you know the couple, have listened to them and assessed their mental state. Needless to say, a professional marriage counselor should feed-back his or her gained impression to the couple. Since the outcome could go either way, depending on what each of them really wants, this tactic should be an important topic during the marriage counseling sessions.
