Oh, this was very well done. Oddly, since I work in a law firm and deal with domestic issues/counseling/family services every day, I rather felt for the counsellor.
And her view of them was really wonderful. There was a nice arc there - one that exists often in real life with clients. They initially seem rather negative until you can see the true loveliness there. For example, Remus went from being shabby and looking like he was homeless to " bones, his fine, warm hazel eyes, his neatly-clipped nails. He looked like a beggar but he smelled clean and pleasant, of soap and aftershave with a hint of musk" and then to being "almost transparent." And Dora rather did the same, for at the end she was quite lovely.
All in all I felt quite sorry for Tonks. She does love him so. And he so tried to lover her - and does in his own way. You made that all abundantly clear.
