There are a variety of resources to help you cope when your marriage or relationship is having problems. Couple therapy or marriage counseling is one of many good options. We encourage you to contact us at Rekindle Counseling in Edina, Minnesota. But don’t hesitate to use more than one strategy to address marital or couple concerns.
