Question by Lauren: I have had enough. Should I leave him?
My husband and I have been married for a little over 3 months now, but we have been together for 3 years. Our relationship has always had its ups and downs just like every other relationship but now its at the point where I don’t know what to do. We were in “marriage counseling” for about 7 months before we actually got married to try to resolve some of our problems (before anyone says “well you shouldn’t have married him anyway if you were in counseling that long” the last 3 months of the counseling he had made a real turn around). It seems that we fight all the time and last night I decided that I have had enough. These are just some of the things that we have discussed/fought over since we have been together:

Question by Kaitlyn: why does my mom try to put me down and not support me?
So a little while ago i walk in the living room and told my mom that i am starting to get blisters from my guitar and she doesnt say anything so i went on with what i had to do and she goes “you were sleeping all day and just getting up when i was getting home from work, im tired”, well i was up until 4am practicing my guitar being that i dream of getting a record deal or be on american idol. she randomly says “your not getting a car at 16 or 17 and your not getting ins. on my car so you wont be able to drive at all”, well i dont exactly get what that has to do with anything? I said im getting a job when im 16 and she says “oh really how are you going to get there” and i just walked in my room and closed the door. It kinda hurts me, she wants me to tell her everything, but i just feel like she just going to laugh if i tell her i want to adution for amaerican idol or anything close to that. I just want to know why she does this and what shes getting out of it? I want to be a singer and it would be amazing if i get there without my familys support, it will be hard but im willing to try.

Mock Patient Counseling Part 2 – Mock Patient Counseling.

 

Question by Christine Y: Name for counselling practice?
I want to open up a counselling practice and can’t think of a good name. Does anyone have any good suggestions?

Best answer:

Answer by Dr. Bob
You don’t need a name for a counseling practice. That would be tacky. Just your name, followed by whatever letters distinguish you (MSW, PhD, etc.) painted on a nice sign with tasteful colors.

Certainly not, “The Shrink is in!” (I already use that when I go to country fairs and libraries to discuss Dr. Alfred Adler and my books.)
