Before You Say “I Do”:

Your Complete, Comprehensive, and Personalized Premarital Preparation Program

Are you preparing more for your wedding than your marriage?

Congratulations!!

This is an exciting time in your life and something you’ve probably thought about and worked toward for many years. Working with hundreds of premarital couples over the years, I know this is very important day for you and your families.

But as important as this day is, after the flowers have wilted, the party is cleaned up, and your family and friends have left, and the honeymoon is over…there you are…married. Those intense loving feelings will begin to fade, and you will have to learn to keep that spark alive.

Through my 20 years of researching, teaching, and working with couples my private practice, I’ve now taken all of that knowledge and experience and created that a detailed, complete, and comprehensive program to help couples prepare for and navigate their first few years of marriage.

The research is clear and is two-fold. Many couples struggle in the adjust to marriage and those couples who participate in premarital education and/or therapy just do better than those who don’t. They are clearer of their expectations, have better communication skills, and know how to traverse the difficulties that all newlywed couples face.

If you want a great start to your marriage and go in with confidence, invest in yourself, your partner, and marriage.

I have spent the last year planning, testing, and honing my program to create the most comprehensive and detailed program to give couples the best start possible. While my program is flexible the following is the standard protocol:

Premarital Preparation Protocol

First session will focus on tailoring the protocol to your unique relationship
Second session will review the research-based and validated relationship assessment RELATE where I will give you specific feedback on your results
Session three will be split between both partners to get their unique perspective on the relationship.
Session 4-8 will be the beginning of the Essential Principles for Building Your Forever Together

◦ Becoming Your Best Self

◦ Attachment and Connection
◦ Communication and Conflict Resolution
◦ Sexual Intimacy
◦ Finances in Marriage

◦ Keeping Your Love Alive

Sessions 9 and 10 will take place 2 – 3 months after the wedding to address and concerns that might have arisen.
Couples will receive weekly homework that will include relationship building activities and discussion opportunities to learn more about their expectations.

After going through this program with me, you will:

Have more confidence in having the amazing, connected, and fun marriage you’ve always wanted.
Establish realistic and healthy expectations of yourself, your partner, and your relationship together.
Increase your understanding and knowledge of each other, including what strengths you have, and pin point some potential areas of challenge for you.
Expand your knowledge of emotional health, money management, safe and effective communication and conflict resolution skills, sexual intimacy, and other predictors of marital satisfaction and stability.
Build resilience to the inevitable struggles and disconnections that all couples have in the first few years of marriage.
Inspire you to have a more intentional and team-based relationship going forward.

All of this is available online through a video conferencing platform. This makes the process much more convenient. Couples will meet with me every week or every other week for 10, 50-minute sessions.

My regular cost for couples therapy for 10 sessions would cost over $1,000. However, I am providing this comprehensive premarital preparation program for $799 if paid all at once. If paid weekly, the cost will be $110 per session.
