Marriage counselling help can actually be more effective than one expects.
The first thing to note about marriage counsellors is that they provide suggestions and feedback that are specially catered to marriage and relationships.
They have gone through training to examine relationship issues, communication patterns and other things related to the human behaviour.
Plus, they are human beings with flexible minds that listen to every specific word you use to describe your relationship and could produce solutions that are personalized to fit your unique relationship.
As unique you are, your lover would also be very unique, and the two of you make up a one-of-a-kind relationship.
While it seems like every couple is complaining about how the husband is always working and never pays enough attention to the wife, each of these situations could have different reasons to them, and yours could be different as well.
The main bond you share with them is that the husband does not give enough attention.
After that, you would need to go further to analyze and consider your moves before following any advice, which is where a marriage counsellor's abilities would shine.
Here are a number of signs that suggest a couple is having some problems in their relationship:

• The couple are often arguing and conflicting with each other over many issues, from the biggest of matters to the smallest of issues.
  
• During an argument, the couple goes off point and voices frustrations over a completely different and unrelated matter, some times ending in mere use of vulgarities.
  
• When a problem occurs, the couple does not share it with each other or look for a solution together.
  
• Each of them begins acting individually, no longer with regards to the needs and desires of the other party.
  
• Romance seems to be absent.
  The couple no longer make out, cuddle together, or even do something as simple as hold hands.
  
• Intimate conversations are no longer held.
  If they do speak, it would merely be for the sake of it, not out of interest of each other.
  

With these thoughts to work on, marriage counsellors analyze these issues faced by couples and develop solutions to help them.
They are able to help resolve situations as minor as misunderstandings and giving a third point of view to highlight things they might have missed out; they are able to help with their financial issues by suggesting ways to save more effectively; they can also help in resolving major issues like secret affairs.
Couples who are facing difficulties in their marriage and are feeling despair and hopelessness should not be giving up so easily.
Since they are only two people, another person could give a hand to make things easier to work out.
Furthermore, by seeking a professional counsellor, they can seek experienced advices.
A marriage counsellor is able to help a couple in these ways:

• Learning to find solutions by listening to your lover's meanings instead of hearing their words.
  
• Learning to express needs and desire clearly and properly so that both of you fully understand each other's needs and not think along the wrong line.
  
• Learning what you need to contribute to the relationship as a couple and as an individual.
  
• Learning to co-operate with each other to find solutions for problems together.
  
• Learning to understand each other's thoughts and see things through their points of view.
  

A marriage counsellor is able to help a couple with many types of different situations all the way until your problems are fixed, and it would work out even better if both you and your partner are willing to work together.
Remember, though, that finding a solution early is advisable before the problem becomes irreversible.
