There are many situations in which team counseling can be effective. For example, it usually ideal when a husband and wife can work together counseling married or engaged couples. Team counseling has many advantages but is also can bring challenges. Team counseling is like a dance in which the counselors need to learn to work well together by reading each other’s signals and being able to spontaneously adjust to the flow of the situation. What if one partner is more capable (or willing) than the other? How can the partners show respect to one another. We will offer wisdom we have learned from many years of experience to help challenge and equip couples to counsel together.
