1. –My, You are a professionally trained marriage guidance counselor. Could you describe your work?
-Yes, we deal with any type of relationship issue that comes our way. We used to
deal with marriages, but 1990s obviously reflect a change in the way behaviors are,
and very much now, people are cohabiting rather than marrying. And, therefore, open our doors to anybody who is in a relationship where things are difficult. So our
work is focused on either relationship breakdowns or marital breakdowns in the hope
that we can either help people to reconcile or help them to separate without too
much animosity and with more understanding.
2. The breakdown of marriage in Britain is about 33,34%, well higher than any other European country. With in fact, that’s first marriages, 50% of second marriages breaking down.
How long have you been doing this sort of work?
-I’ve been involved in counseling now for 8 years.
-What sort of qualifications do you need to do what you do as a profession?
-For counseling, you don’t actually need any formal qualifications, but the actual selection procedure is extremely stringent. It’s a two year training.
