Premarital Counseling
A recent study had found that couples who had completed some form of premarital counseling had a 30% increase in marital satisfaction compared with those who hadn't undergone such counseling.
Premarital counseling can help you learn about your strengths and interaction styles for a better and healthier relationships. Explore and practice different tools and skills that can support you and your partner on your journey together. Talk about expectations and goals, learn about triggers and how they affect your relationship, set up rules and discuss family roles you envision for your future. Talk about the unspeakable, get to know your partner from a different angle, and find the right path for you to grow together.
Premarital Therapy can be beneficial for:
Pre-engaged couples [dating]: who are exploring the idea of getting married or committing to the relationship.
Engaged couples: wanting to strengthen and increase their success in their relationship.
Newlywed married or remarried couples: who would like to learn from their past, acquire helpful tools and skills, and deepen their relationship.
