A good therapist will help you see your actions, your spouse's actions and your relationship in a new light. If after two or three meetings, your therapist hasn't guided you to at least one new realization, it's not working, try a different therapist.
Breaking up the marriage will cause that future-image, that part of you, to cease to exist.
Poof! It's GONE. No more future. All the old dreams and ideas about what you were going to do and be together. Gone.
There will be a void in you that cannot be filled, not by anyone or anything. The void is much larger than the lack of a person playing the role of 'spouse', it's a hole in your identity, an utter lack of future. Only time, new experiences and new and old friends can help you create a new future-image for yourself.
Try to be prepared for this. But don't expect being prepared to help much.
