Counselling

[Unintentionallycausingoffence]

I feel DH and me need relationship counselling. DH says he knows why we argue a lot and we can address it ourselves but I think the underlying cause is something we need help with. Can I apply for counselling for us without his consent or do I need his consent?. I’m having counselling myself, well I had it a couple of years ago and I’m having more now but we need it as a couple I feel

You need him to want to engage with counselling for it to work, plus yes of course they will want his consent. But counselling itself is not the magic wand it's the work on yourself/your relationship prompted by the counselling that affects change - you have to be bought into the process for it to work. If he isn't then it won't make any difference.
