how many marriage counselling sessions do you have?

I have a question for those couples who've been going to a marriage councillor together. How many times do you think you will need to go? Do you think regular visits it will be required for as long as you are together? We've gone to a marriage councillor about a dozen times since we first started having sessions with one about five years ago. Somewhere my wife has gotten this idea (says it like it's a fact) that most couples are able to fix things within six sessions. I think this isn't true. She says it like it's proof we're doomed to fail and justification for her lack of interest in the relationship. I think in our few hours of sessions with a MC we've certainly worked on a few things but I think she's hardly opened up and admitted very little of what goes on at home. I see some long and enduring psychological support needed, but the hard and sad truth is it's up to her to allow or seek help. So what do you think is the truth? Do most couples go for a few weeks and then they've 'worked it all out for good'? Any thoughts?
