Depends on your actual situation, if she is being urged to get counselling in a judgmental way, I don't think she'll fall for it; If it's in a mutual way, she might.
Counselling, cannot be for one spouse only, but both, so try to tell her that both of you need help, and that you love her and you want to do the best you can to save what you have the most precious if counselling can help, however ask her if she has another idea on how to move forward.

What do you do if your husband refuses to go to marriage counseling?
In situations where a spouse or partner refuses to participate in counseling, it can be beneficial to still seek counseling for yourself. Although it is ideal to have both parties in the room, individual counseling can still be helpful when trying to clarify your concerns, identify emotions and gain insights or perspectives on how to communicate effectively, set boundaries, etc. You may find that as you progress and grow on your own in the relationship, your partner/spouse may become more interested in the process and willing to participate later down the road.

Will counseling help your marriage?
Women are more accepting of marriage counseling than men. Some men will go to counseling and try, but a larger percent will go just to please their spouse and often times only half listen to what the counselor is saying. However, seeing a marriage counselor is a good idea and if your spouse does not want to cooperate then you will have to make a decision whether to stay in the marriage or not.
Would a man attend marriage counseling with his wife if he believes there are no problems in the marriage?
Many men don't think there is anything wrong with their marriage and if they are forced to go they often blame the wife for the problems or better yet, deny anything is wrong with the marriage. Obviously you aren't happy and he's not listening to what you have to say. It takes good communication skills and trust in each other to keep a marriage going. No one said that marriage was easy and every day each one of us that is married has to work on that marriage. Your husband is not in the right fram of mind. It's time to start communicating and if he doesn't want to sit and talk with you (my husband and go for walks and it relaxes both parties this way) and with his attitude don't waste your money on a marriage counselor. Just because he doesn't feel there is anything wrong with your marriage doesn't mean there isn't. Marriage counseling isn't for everyone but you and your husband are adults and you should communicate and make some effort to change things in your marriage so you are both fairly happy. Perhaps plan on a vacation away (it can be to another country or simply a romantic trip to the mountains and stay in a nice cabin.) The bottom line ... "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them drink!" If your husband refuses to communicate or listen to your feelings and refuses counseling then you are going to have to ask yourself if you want to stay together because it sure won't get better. Good luck
Is a marriage worth saving if you the husband lied about getting off on the phone with women and I know I was very wrong for doing so we have been through a lot and iI love my wife so much?
It would be wise of you to seek psychological counseling to find out why you feel the need to get off on the phone while talking to women because this problem will not go away on it's own. If you do not communicate your problem with your wife and get the counseling then there is no future in your marriage.
Hot to reconnect with your wife after you cheated?
You said it in a nut shell ... 'Hot!' It seems you are 'hot to trot' as is. What have you learned from cheating? It appears the grass wasn't so green on the other side of the fence. Unless you take your cheating more seriously and realize that you hurt your wife deeply and broke that bond of trust she had in you (isn't easy to get back) you are dead in your tracks before you get started. You need to be absolutely sure you will go the mile to earn your wife's trust back. Be smart, contact your wife and suggest marriage counseling and unless you believe marriage counseling can help the two of you then don't further mess up your wife's life!
Should you get marriage counseling before getting married?
I would suggest that you go for a marriage counseling before you get married. It really helps when you apply what you learn... Well if you ever needed to have a counseling for your marriage at any point maybe your boyfriend or husband isn't the one for you! No offence because this is coming from a young age I told my mother the same thing!
