"My W will not go to counseling and I can't force her to do something she doesn't want."

Have you asked her? What does she think of the communication between the two of you.

"Plus unless the counseling is solution based counseling I see no point in it myself. "

Then why don't you find one? If only for yourself?

Would she be open to reading a book on the subject? At the very least, you should try reading on your own and maybe get her interested in it.

Either way, it doesn't do any good to sweep things under the rug.

Did she ever tell you why she was going through what she was going through? Have you had any heart to heart talks?
