Marriage difficulties

Experiencing negative communication and feelings of wanting to end the marriage. Difficulty in having a sexual relationship due to a past experience which has caused so much fear that you are unable to engage in sex.  I have a certificate in couple counselling and work with couples on a weekly basis.  Once the issues are clearly established then work can begin to understand the repetitive patterns of unhelpful behaviour that stop you from enjoying your marriage/relationship.
