If you’re about to get married, premarital counseling can help ensure the success of your marriage. Specifically I can clarify your expectations of each other and the relationship. You can clarify your expectations of each other and the relationship, gain a better understanding of your differences, and identify potential areas of conflict.
Counseling prior to marriage can help a couple get clear about what their strengths and areas of growth are. I offer both formal and informal non-religious premarital counseling programs.
Prepare and Enrich
In the formal program I will facilitate a world renown research based program called Prepare and Enrich. You each will take an online assessment and we will discuss the results and develop specific activities to strengthen the areas that can be improved upon. Couples who are committed to counseling will be able to gain a deeper understanding of dynamics, personalities, stress, strength and growth areas for a successful relationship.
Informal
Alternately, I offer a more informal premarital process. Where together we identify the main areas in which your relationship could be more satisfying. Using a range of activities I help you build confidence to manage conflict, discuss your differences and negotiate your needs effectively and compassionately.
It’s easier to work on your relationship when things are going well. It’s much more difficult if you wait until problems arise and become habitual patterns and then try to fix them. Attending couples counseling is a smart investment. It enables you to strengthen communication skills. Additionally it can help deepen your connection with one another in a proactive manner.
