They say that marriage counselling as practised by Western psychologists has a success rate below 6 percent. Not a very promising statistic if you want to stop a divorce.
And they are supposed to be the experts on marriage, which suggests that they are not doing a very good job at saving marriages.

Of course, they can’t possibly know everything about how to save a marriage in crisis but you would expect a higher success rate than that from someone who is a professional, wouldn’t you?
Don’t misunderstand me. I am not knocking marriage counselors as they do a difficult job, but the thing is, a lot of marriage counselors haven’t been through marriage problems themselves so they tend to see things differently to those who have. Trying to stop a divorce when they most of them haven’t been through one themselves is a big hindrance to understanding what they are dealing with.
Someone who had been through a failed marriage is Paul Friedman, who went to numerous marriage and family counselors for over ten years, but still failed to save his marriage.
Finally, after all the pain of divorce, he concluded that something was very wrong with the system and decided to do something about it. Thinking that he couldn’t do any worse, he became a family and business mediator with the goal of fixing the system.
Paul had the extra experience of going through a divorce himself and decided to analyze why his own marriage failed despite the best attempts of he and his wife. As he examined his former marriage, it dawned on him that there was a much bigger picture and that divorce was completely preventable.
Paul now knows what makes a happy marriage and finally decided to share this vital information by writing his own book – which has helped many couples to stop a divorce.
Lessons for a Happy Marriage explains his own situation, the valuable lessons he learned from it, and how to prevent it from happening to anyone else with marriage problems.

There’s a lot more sound advice in the book but I can’t give a full description of everything in such a short review.

“I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate what you had recovery. When I met you on Friday, I literally thought my marriage was done. Now it is not even a thought in my mind.”
Paul, I can’t believe it! We were going to Dr. —– for almost a year and we thought we were making progress. And then in one afternoon you hit the nail right on the head, and by the second afternoon we were completely done. (4 years later) Bill and I are doing better than I ever thought we could! – Cathy
“Hi Paul, I wanted to thank you for your book. It has immediately impacted my life. I can’t begin to tell you how much you have shared with us. Our marriage is now on the right track of recovery. When I first found your book I literally thought our marriage was done. Now it’s not even a thought in my mind.”
