Our counselor scolded us, telling us the only way we can heal our marriage is to stop bringing up the past--we've both been hurt by the other person FOR SURE--and start forgiving each other.
It's good that your counselor is forward-thinking. It seems that spending too much time on recounting the mess doesn't help solve the mess. Moving forward to solutions, not back to problems, is the way to go!

I agree with this 100%.
By the way, it seems we might be in the line of fire for the awful weather you've been experiencing. (I'm on the east coast). Insane downpours this morning, flood warnings popping up every few minutes, tornado watches, and possibly more later tonight.
