Question Is Marriage Counseling Ever Worth it with an Active Alcoholic

I suggested marriage counseling since my AH and I are not getting along, and me being the codependent thought I owed him that. We went to our first session this evening and I feel a little let down. He came and acted interested but some of his statements to the counselor were just pure quack, quack. He obviously doesn't get it, and just as I thought thinks everything is great. I'm encouraged but also not hopeful after this initial visit. IMHO, he seems to be playing a manipulation game to please me by going.

What experiences have some of you had with marriage counseling with an active AH who is in total denial?
