Treatment & Support
What Brings Couples In
- «The same argument, recurring in different costumes, never resolving
- «In-laws, and the question of where a couple's boundary sits in a joint family
- «Intimacy that has faded, or stopped, and become impossible to raise
- «An affair — discovered, confessed, or suspected
- «Money, and the disagreements about spending, saving and supporting relatives
- «Parenting, particularly where one parent is the disciplinarian and one the refuge
- «A marriage arranged by families where the couple never actually built a friendship
- «Growing apart quietly, with no villain and no incident, which is often the hardest version to discuss
How Marriage Counselling Runs Here
Sessions are usually joint, with individual sessions for each partner early on so that each person has one hour to speak without managing the other's reaction. What is said individually stays confidential; the sessions are not used to build a case.
The counsellor's role is not to adjudicate. Couples frequently arrive hoping for a verdict — that the third person in the room will finally confirm who is right. That does not happen, and it would not help if it did. What happens instead is that the pattern between you becomes visible, which is more useful and considerably less comfortable.
Sessions run an hour. Most couples start weekly or fortnightly and space out as things settle. You should expect to be told when the work is done rather than kept coming indefinitely.
Joint Families and Where the Line Sits
In Delhi this is not a peripheral issue; it is frequently the whole issue. A couple living with parents, with a mother-in-law's authority over the kitchen and the routine, with an unmarried brother-in-law, with property decisions taken by an elder — the marriage is being conducted in a context where the couple is not the only decision-making unit.
Advice imported wholesale from Western couples therapy — set a boundary, move out, prioritise the marriage — is often useless here, not because it is wrong in principle but because it ignores the actual costs of doing it. The work is to find what is genuinely negotiable in your particular family, which is usually more than a couple assumes and less than a book promises.
Whether to Stay
Some couples come to repair the marriage. Others come because one or both are considering ending it and want to make the decision properly rather than in the aftermath of a bad week.
Both are legitimate uses of counselling. Nobody will be pushed toward staying or leaving. Where a couple does separate, doing so with less damage — particularly where there are children — is a real outcome, not a failure.
Where Counselling Is Not Appropriate
Joint counselling is not appropriate where there is violence or coercive control. Sitting a couple in a room and encouraging honest disclosure can make things more dangerous for the person at risk after they go home.
If that is your situation, individual support is available, and the national women's helpline in India is 181, with police on 112.

Questions & Answers
Everything you need to know before booking your first session.
My husband will not come. Is there any point in my coming alone?+
Yes. A great deal of marital work is done with one partner. A marriage is a system, and one person consistently changing what they do alters how the whole thing runs. Many reluctant partners join later, once the sessions stop looking like a tribunal.
Will you tell us whether to divorce?+
No. That is your decision. What counselling offers is clarity about what the marriage actually is, what could realistically change, and what each path costs — so that the decision is made deliberately.
How many sessions does marriage counselling take?+
Commonly eight to sixteen for couples working on a specific difficulty. Long-standing patterns or the aftermath of an affair usually take longer. You will get an honest assessment after the first few sessions.
Is what I say in an individual session kept from my spouse?+
Yes. Individual sessions are confidential. The one thing that cannot be held is a plan that puts someone in danger.
Can we do this online?+
Yes, and many Delhi couples do because of traffic and work hours. Where you are in the same house, both partners on one screen in one room works better than separate devices.
Where do we come for in-person sessions?+
D-96 Anand Niketan, New Delhi 110021, in South Delhi. Call +91-9999344415 to arrange a time.
