Premarital Counseling
Premarital Counseling for Engaged Couples, & Partners Seriously Considering Long-Term Committed Relationships
Investing on your marriage shows commitment. Further, it shows an eagerness to create a foundation in your relationship with your partner that is lasting. You are showing now that you will put for the effort to start your marriage the way you want it to be for years to come. You and your spouse want a loving marriage where you feel connected to one another and you’re willing to do what it takes now so that connection remains strong for years to come.
Seeking therapy or support for your marriage shouldn’t cause shame or is not there to highlight what is wrong with you. You are seeking counseling to work out the kinks, find ways to better communicate, and address some of the challenges that may have come up in your relationship. Think of it as a relationship tune-up before you make a forever commitment. This type of checkup and maintenance will be important through the duration of your relationship, your marriage.
Couples who want to grow and seek an understanding about their marriage and how they want to approach their marriage utilize premarital counseling as a way to learn more about themselves within the partnership and address the issues most couples face in a marriage:
Communication
Finances
Parenting
Changing Needs & Wants
Conflict
Sex & Intimacy
Family/In-Laws
Family Planning
Individual Identity Inside the Marital Relationship
Putting in the effort to create a happy marriage impacts your mood, your sense of connection, and strengthens the sense of self. The foundation of your family is forever linked to the foundation of your marriage and the effort to consistently work on that foundation will impact the longevity of your marriage and your ability to find authentic peace and joy with this union.
As a couples therapist in the Metro-Atlanta area, I strive to build couples up and help them to create a marriage that grows with the ebbs and flow of life with group counseling or individual couple sessions. With the telehealth option, I can reach couples in the comfort of their home where they can be relaxed and let go to really dig deeper in to the challenges they are facing or are fearful of facing within their marriage. Together we will examine the relationship and the areas that need to be worked on based the Prepare-Enrich assessment and based on what you both think needs to be addressed. We will do the work together tp help create and maintain a loving, lasting bond.
