With therapy, yes. It takes dedication and a real desire to stop the abuse.

AnswerYes, but they do not want to. In their minds, they love control. With abusing a person comes control with all its benefits. These types doubt their masculinity and control makes them feel in charge and powerfull. The abuser has everyone at his mercy, he gets things his way. For example, an abuser can skip you birthday sometimes without any real conflict. The victim is worn down and afraid to speak up and if she does it gets shoved down her throat! The abuser therefore, does not have to bother with anything that requires getting off the couch.

Answer Abusers can be cured but it takes years of Thearpy to cure them as their abuse probably stems from something they saw between their parents or something that happened to them as children and it only comes out in their adult life. Good luck

Answer The answer to your question is NO. Marriage Counserlors are just that, and they specialize in their field, but your abuser will have to go to someone special who deals with Abusers to find out why he or she abuses. Maybe something from their childhood, but whatever the case be, if I were you I wouldn't live one minute with an abuser as they make all kinds of promises and keep none of them. They are sick people who for one reason or another can't help themselves, but they can surely reap havoc on the people who love them most. Be careful not to believe the lies that comes from this person's mouth as that's about the only thing an abuser is good at. Lying!!!!

Statistically, the odds of an abuser changing are low. However, there are key indicators you can watch for in a person who is taking an honest interest in changing their abusive behavior:
1) They acknolwedge that they are abusive, and that it is their responsibility, and not the fault of anyone else that they are they way they are.
2) They admit that they WANT to change, and that they know the process of change is very difficult
3) They undergo a violence/abuse assessment, delivered by a professional who focuses on these things. The abuser is willing and wanting to follow the recommendations of the assessment.
4) They voluntarily enter programs specifically oriented around addressing abusive and/or violent behaviors. These group programs generally are extensive, and may run from a minimum of 16 weeks to 52 weeks in length. Jointly, they should also attend individual counseling that is specific to the challenges they have in addressing their behavior and emotional challenges.
5) The process for change is hard, and can be long. How long depends on the individual, their readiness for change, and ability to integrate the change.
6) The individual will tend to this change in an ongoing process which may be lifelong.

The process for changing abusive tendencies is intense, very difficult (because it is rooted in learned behaviors that likely spanned significant portions of their childhood), and due to the extraordinarily low level of community support due to the morally reprehensible nature of this behavior, the individual will find the path to rehabilitation difficult to maintain despite their initial best interests and convictions.

If the individual is willingly able to endure this path to change, they can and will change.
