Months of planning and expense go into the wedding, but what about after the Big Day?

Invest in your future with premarital counseling. The average couple waits 6 years before getting support with issues, and half of all marriages end within the first 7 years.

It doesn't have to be this way. 

​

Couples who undergo premarital counseling have been found to have a 30% higher

marital success rate than those who do not seek counseling.

 

I'd love to support you in creating a thriving partnership.

 

I'm a certified facilitator of the Prepare/Enrich Premarital Curriculum, which is the global standard in premarital counseling.

​

Your premarital counseling package is tailored to meet your unique needs as a couple. While the Prepare/Enrich program was originally created in a faith-based environment, spirituality will only be included at the couple's request, and secular materials are used.  

 

It can be equally useful for couples moving in together without marriage, same-sex partnerships, and ethical non-monogamy partnerships.  

​

  1. Assessment: I begin with a comprehensive assessment using the Prepare/Enrich inventory, a trusted tool that helps identify your strengths and growth areas as a couple.
     

  2. Customized Sessions: Based on the assessment results, we'll create a personalized counseling plan to address the specific areas that need attention. This may include communication, conflict resolution, financial management, and more.  This is designed around you and your relationship's needs.
     

  3. Skill Building: The sessions will guide you through a series of topics to improve your relationship skills. You'll learn effective communication techniques, problem-solving strategies, and how to navigate common challenges that arise in relationships.
     

  4. Exploration: I'll encourage open and honest discussions about your values, goals, and expectations in marriage. This exploration helps you align your visions for the future and hopefully decrease future tensions and misunderstandings. It's not about agreeing with each other on everything, but learning how to respect the differences and find ways to honor both partners. 
     

  5. Strengths-Based Approach: While we'll address areas that need improvement, I'll also focus on celebrating your strengths as a couple. Something brought you two together! 
     

  6. Support: I'll provide a supportive and non-biased environment where you can express your thoughts and feelings without judgment. We're here to facilitate productive conversations and offer guidance as needed
