Marriage Prep

Despite the name, “marriage” prep is perfect for any couple beginning or preparing for a long-term partnership — whether it be engagement, marriage, or common-law commitment.

In these sessions, we aim to build an all-encompassing communication tool kit for couples. Our partners are a vital part of our growing lives, so it is essential to mindfully and lovingly build strong foundations to support us through the years. 

You can expect to chat about topics like…

  • Managing different personalities

  • Collaborating on shared values and goals

  • Navigating conflict and communication

  • Strengthening connections and intimacy

  • Taking care of each other

  • Upholding mental health in your relationship 

  • Merging finances

  • Whatever is unique to your relationship with each other

Our session format commonly looks like 5 private 1-hour sessions for you and your partner, arranged according to your schedule.

As a part of Marriage Prep, the Gottman CheckUp is also administered. This online assessment tool will help us determine who you are, where you are in your relationship, and where we can work from!
