How do you get a reluctant dh to agree to counselling?

I am sure that mine is not the only one, but he would never entertain the idea. I am finding things really tricky ATM and am terrified that our marriage is going to fall apart. we can't talk, as he acuses me of picking fights or being hormonal. I think we would really benefit from some counselling sessions but there is no point whatsoever in suggesting it. He would be cruelly snide to me. Anyone ever got round this?

tell him exactly what you have said here? i.e. that you are scared your marriage is going to fall apart. If he really won't consider it, arrange counselling for just yourself anyway, to help you clarify your thoughts about the relationship, how you respond to him.
