Premarital and Postmarital Counseling

Start your marriage on a firm foundation with this six-session counseling bundle package.

Using tools like Prepare-Enrich, I help couples prepare for marriage or rebuild after difficult seasons. We’ll explore strengths, growth areas, and practical ways to nurture a strong, Christ-centered relationship.

We’ll meet together for six online sessions, and at the end of our time, you’ll receive a written report, and get a discount on your marriage license!

Your written report will include:

  • 1. Overview & Couple Type

    A summary of your patterns as a couple and general relational style (e.g., vitalized, harmonious, conventional, conflicted, etc.)

    Relationship dynamics compared to similar couples.

  • 2. Strength & Growth Area Profile

    A color-coded or scaled breakdown showing where the couple scores high, moderate, or low in key relationship categories, such as communication, conflict resolution, partner style & habits, financial management, sexual relationship, spiritual beliefs (if selected), family & friends, marriage expectations, leisure activities, and parenting expectations (if applicable).

  • 3. Couple Agreement & Alignment

    Agreement scales showing how closely partners’ answers match.

    Items they agree on strongly vs. items where they differ greatly.
