I am assuming that your counselling is for both of you? As a counsellor I might just add this: the goal of couple counselling is NOT for the marriage to work or divorce to happen...it is a forum where the issues and problems are 'put on the table' in a safe environment for the couple to discuss and the counsellor to mediate the discussion. Occasionally a counseller will wade in with suggestions....especailly about how to change whatever it is you both have agreed to change within your relationships. This can be communication patterns...patterns of behaviour...acceptance of differing values, ideas, dreams etc. After this amount of time, I would think that your issues have all been addressed. If you are still unhappy, then the match between yourself and yur spouse may just be a bad one. So, yes....separate for a trial period. Some relationships just are not going to work. Period.
