Are you a newlywed?
Did you just get engaged?
Are you and your partner looking to take your relationship to the next level?
As a certified Prepare/Enrich Facilitator, I can help you and your significant other improve your relationship by helping you develop better communication skills, learn conflict management, uncover your shared core values, as well as identify differences that could create future conflict. Working with me, you can discuss expectations with your partner that will help better prepare both of you for marriage. Pre-marital counseling can set your marriage up to succeed and survive long-term, in spite of the odds.
So if these sound like you:
- You and your partner have arguments that don’t get resolved
- You feel like you’re always the one who has to compromise to keep the peace
- You’re concerned about how your partner’s financial situation will affect you as a married couple
- You’re worried about losing affection or having a diminished sex life after marriage
- You want to find healthier ways to resolve conflict
- You want to resolve religious or financial differences
- You want to define your marital roles and expectations
… Then pre-marital counseling can be a great benefit to both you and your partner.
The intimate nature of marriage requires that you talk to your partner about everything, no matter how awkward or uncomfortable. Pre-marital counseling will help you learn how to be a better listener, and how to make your voice and needs heard in a productive and positive manner.
In pre-marital counseling, we will likely bring up topics that you’ve discussed with your partner previously, as well as subjects you hadn’t considered before. This fresh perspective from an objective third party will uncover new details from your partner. This is also an excellent time for us to find unexpected areas where you disagree, and give you the tools to handle possible future conflict.
Getting married is one of life’s most treasured experiences. Pre-marital counseling can help you and your partner turn that momentous occasion into a loving, lasting relationship. For guidance and support to strengthen your future marriage, please contact me today so we can schedule an appointment.
