Marriage Counselor recs/experiences

Can anyone recommend a good marriage counselor in the des moines/surrounding area?  Has anyone had (or know of ) a couple that has had a good experience with a counselor (when you feel you are hanging on by a string)?

    DH and I saw Mary Jankowski and really liked her.  We weren't to the point where we were hanging by a string, but we needed a bit of a "tune up" and she was awesome.  Her number is 515-277-1124 and she is located at 7405 University Avenue in Clive.  If this is for you I wish you the best of luck in finding a solution! Sometimes just having a neutral party listen can make a world of difference.

  • I work close to a marriage counselor, and have heard that they are good, but haven't had personal experience.  PJ and Claudette McDonald through Family Communication Associates off 70th and Hickman.

  • DH is a recovering alcoholic and we have spent years in therapy working out the dynamics of our relationship because of this.  We personally each saw someone and then all four of us got together for couples therapy.  It worked really well for us to each have someone with us in the couples therapy.

    One of the counselors was Melissa Wubben from Central Iowa Psychology, 515-222-1999.  We started with her in West Des Moines and she continued with us when we moved to Ames.  I switched counselors when we moved because it was easier for me to do that than my husband.
