My boyfriend unceremoniously dumped me 2 months ago. He suggested relationship counselling and we have had two sessions to date. Has anybody out there had counselling and if so did you think it was worthwhile??

If both parties want a change in the relationship/their own issues, then it will help. If one doesn't work in the session, the other should continue to find out why they are with a person who doesn't want to change for the better. You must, of course, have a good counselor. Counseling always helps to give insight to something, it is the third party, and of great benefit.

it is only productive if you are both serious about saving the relationship and are prepared to do the work needed to get a result. If this is not the case, it won't work and a a counsellor will tell you not to waste your money if they are ethical.
The counseller will probably ask you what you wish to gain from the sessions individually and as a couple, and you take it from there.
Take care
