If You Want to Make Sure You Are Setting the Agreements for Your Relationship Consciously and On Purpose for Your Life Together, Here Are a Few Ways You Can Benefit From Pre-Marital Therapy:

Improve Communication Skills. If you are finding yourself with feelings of unresolved conflict, Pre-Marital Therapy can help you improve your ability to communicate effectively and resolve issues. There are many things to negotiate during this exciting and tumultuous phase of life, and it is great to practice affirmative communication and emotional safety.

Share Expectations. Having an open and honest discussion about what you expect and what makes you happy can lead to fewer surprises down the line. Therapy can help you if sensitive issues are difficult or impossible to talk about.

Learn to Share Your Feelings Without Making Your Partner Wrong. This may sound easy, but if you are from a family who wasn’t too good about sharing their feelings in a positive way, you may still feel stuck with unwanted emotions and confusion.  Therapy can help you improve your focus and create a more positive relationship while still being true to yourself.

Practice Conflict Resolution. Break Negative Patterns. Be prepared ahead of time with skills we practice for the heat-of-the-moment when disagreements arise. If you let yourself continue to go to the default responses of counter-attack, blame, punishment, resentment, jealousy or withdrawal, this relationship is going to be rocky.

Explore Spiritual Beliefs. Different belief systems are not necessarily a problem in a couple, and belief systems can be a source of unity as well as conflict. It is good to share and develop your feelings around spiritual and religious beliefs and practices to create a multi-faceted foundation.

Create Your Marriage on Purpose. Let us help You and your partner create your future together in terms of factors that are important to you such as intimacy, finances, career, children, in-laws, friends, recreation.
