AN I couldn’t disagree more about your comment on therapy in marriage that indicates the marriage is near end.
While that is true for some people, I would argue that going to therapy can be for people to take their relationships to the next level versus averting disaster. For some people its so they can hone in on being more succcessful in life and in the various roles they play. For others its like going to get your car tuned up. Does getting your car worked on mean its almost dead or you’re about to sell it? Not usually, its routine maintenance. Who does not have issues? Any issues? With self, with marriage, job, etc? Everyone has work to do.
What about career coaches? Many highly successful people I know who are CEOs or run their own businesses go to psychologists who specialize in career coaching. These people want to take their careers to the next level but also want to work on balancing their lives.
Therapy isn’t for everyone, but I know plenty of people who do see a therapist and it changes their lives for the better.
