Pre-Marital Prep Counseling

Engaged? Newlywed? Getting Remarried?

Congratulations!

Investing in your relationship now is one of the best gifts you can give yourself and your partner. A wedding lasts a day, but a marriage is built for a lifetime. Premarital counseling helps you create the foundation for connection, trust, and joy that endures far beyond the ceremony.

Nearly half of marriages in the U.S. end in divorce—but with the right tools, you can beat the odds. Using evidence-based strategies, I’ll help you and your partner:

  • Strengthen communication and understanding

  • Develop negotiation and conflict-resolution skills

  • Deepen emotional and physical intimacy

  • Build confidence in your shared vision for the future

Start early to enjoy the long-term rewards of a strong, prepared relationship.

Why Premarital Counseling Matters

Many couples grow up without clear models of healthy, lasting relationships. Premarital counseling provides the knowledge and tools to build what may not have been demonstrated at home.

It offers:

  • Research-based strategies to prevent problems before they arise

  • A safe space to discuss values, expectations, and goals

  • Insight into creating a balanced, fulfilling, and enduring marriage

Focus Areas

  • Adulting 101: Launch and thrive in the adult world with clarity and shared responsibility

  • Identity & Self-Discovery: Embrace your authentic self while growing together as a couple

  • Romance & Intimacy: Learn how to nurture love in a changing, modern world

  • Healing & Growth: Address past breakups, unhealthy dynamics, or family legacies that may affect your marriage

  • Pre-Marital Prep: Gain practical tools for communication, finances, parenting, and future planning

Why This Investment Matters

Planning for marriage is about more than romance—it’s about creating a partnership that can withstand challenges and grow stronger with time.

Think of premarital counseling as the best gift you can give each other: the knowledge, skills, and confidence to build a lifetime of love, resilience, and companionship.
