I had both individual and couples therapy with my current T. There are pros and cons. I liked that my T knew me and some stuff about my husband so it saved us going through history again.

However, when my husband didn't want to go at first and then did go and then wanted to quit. It was quite embarrassing. He just isn't comfortable with the idea of therapy. We talk on our own. I do wish he would've stayed with the couples counseling.

My T says that his not being involved is pretty telling about how he feels about working on the marriage. So, there is the "con" about having the same T. I don't know is he right or just upset my husband didn't want to continue?

We are working through our issues together privately and we talk about my therapy all the time. He likes to hear what he has to say through me. My husband is very very shy and reserved. It isn't personal to me or my T...but you may want separate T's for the couples counseling...
