I hope it doesn't last 2 hours, that would be a lot of gripes!

If you think back to reading DB/DR, Michelle points out that therapists are trying to help you feel better, not restore your marriage. Many of them believe that cutting your losses and moving on quickly is the best way to heal, so they will advise you to do so.

Per Cat, if you went to 10 therapists with the same scenario you may get 10 different recommendations, but no one can afford a sample size that large.

I don't know what your therapy situation looks like, but for "marriage saving" I found the DB telephone coaches on this site much more helpful than therapists. They specialize on troubled marriages and its all they do all day long. Your average therapist is more of a generalist. Try the DB coach if you haven't already, some of the best money I ever spent. You will feel better after talking to them.
