Pre-Marital Counseling

Pre-Marital Counseling

I believe it is important for couples to take time to prepare for their future life together by exploring each other’s strengths and weaknesses and identifying areas in their relationship that will require some work. When they do this, a couple can increase their chances of having a happy and long-lasting marriage.

In my pre-marital counseling sessions, I help couples discover, talk about and strengthen the skills necessary upon entering marriage. Through discussion of the following topics, they are able to build upon successes and learn how to negotiate areas of concern: Emotions, Communication, Conflict, Expectations, Commitment, and Change.

I offer individual pre-marital counseling sessions as well as a Pre-Marital Counseling Package which includes five sessions plus a follow-up session six months after a couple’s wedding. When a couple attends more than one session or signs up for the Package, at the end of each session I assign homework which provides the basis for discussion in the next session.

If you are interested in setting a firm foundation for your marriage, call me to schedule your pre-marital sessions in advance of your wedding. I welcome all sexual orientations.
