My therapist always said, that barring abuse, he didn't advocate for or against divorce. His job was to help me work towards whatever relationship goal I found healthiest for me and to perhaps help me discern that if I needed that kind of support. He was entirely straight with me though if he thought something in my thinking or actions, or something in the marriage needed to be brought into the light. He didn't soft-shoe around reality. Expect a therapist to expect you to get real with yourself.
