I was thinking that it was your W that had said in past months that she needed to see one but was on a waiting list, or trying to get the assistance for one.
If she doesn't believe she needs individual counseling, i don't see how you could force her......and it be beneficial for her. You were trying to get her help. But you can hold out for marriage counseling. I don"t believe it will survive without it.
I have never been to Retrouville, but based on what I have read, I would encould you to present it to your W. If she agrees to go with you, that will be a good sign. But if she makes up excuses, not so good.
She did say in February that she had been put on the waiting list to see a therapist. It wasn't for her behaviour that I have witnessed it was just someone for her to talk too. I don't know if she is still on the list or not.
Unless she does something about it, sooner or later I think it will come up again. If it is aimed at me and I can handle it correctly and not let it effect me it will either make her realize what she needs to do or she could be stuck like that for a long time.
I have spoken to the people at Retrouville and I cannot believe how helpful they come across. I told them about my financial concerns and they are so accommodating. Logistically with sorting out the kids and the 4 hour drive there and back would be hard but I think do-able.
