I've listened to Dave Ramsey's radio show & he mentions all his endorsed local providers...including Vow Savers - he says they are christian based counselors that he reccomends on his website...I haven't checked it out though.

I found my C in the yellow pages and lucked into a decent one. My H doesn't have ins. while in college, and my ins. does not pay for M Counseling, just indv. C. C billed my ins. for 1 indv. session and charged my H about $20 - the difference btw his fee for MC and what the ins. would reimburse. MC didn't last long for us though....back in Sept. C said we weren't candidates for MC b/c H wasn't committed to working on the M and then H moved out.

I'm sure there are C out there who are willing to work with your financial sitch...as they are in the profession of helping people.

I apologize b/c don't know the background of your sitch. I can tell you how I have responsed to my H, although we don't live together. I basically tried to respond to H with how he acted towards me. When he wasn't open to talking, I'd try to back off and keep the conversation to a minimun. If he seemed to want space, I'd try to give it to him. When he was chatty, I'd be in return. He slowly has come around, it took him some time to open back up. We are not intimate yet, but hopefully that will change soon . His b-day is mon. and I'm going to offer him a present . I don't know if you have already tried this type of approach or if it would be appropriate for you at this time. Why you think your H is so withdrawn from you at this time?
