Premarital Therapy

When I think of Premarital therapy, I am reminded that we have the same choices as The Three Little Pigs. Choices to build the foundation of a relationship range from straw to bricks. We custom designed our package for the unique needs of each couple. Yes, you can meet the states requirements of 4 hours and receive $60 off your marriage license. However, our passion is strong marriages; marriages that will survive “huffing and puffing” and cannot be blown down.

$485 Pre-Engaged/Marital Package*

Included:
• Online assessment: Prepare/Enrich.

Why Prepare/Enrich? Because you have been an individual longer than a couple, it is my desire to look at your family history, your compatibility, and areas that could cause complications.

• Results of Prepare/Enrich
• 7 sessions
• 1 year anniversary check-up
• Additional sessions the entire first year of marriage at a discounted rate ($85)

Not included in package:
Book: Hold Me Tight, Seven Conversations for a Lifetime of Love by Dr. Sue Johnson. Please purchase and begin reading (preferably before the first session). Highlight “your own stuff.” If sharing a book, each person should use a designated color. See the Resource Tab for more information.

*Non-refundable. The pre-marital package includes greatly reduced rates; therefore non-refundable.

Why did we choose the picture of the Mandarinfish to represent Premarital couples?

Mating MandarinfishThe story is so romantic… Each night, as the sun sets, mandarin fish rise out of their protected environment to mate. During the day, these exotic fish live within the finger corals or rock ledges unseen by man. It is not until the sun wanes over the horizon that the courting begins. You can see the female dance before the male, taunting him, beckoning him to her. Captivated by her charm he pursues as she coyly darts away. The chase continues. The ritual culminates in an intimate, reproductive experience as they rise into open water joined together. At this point they are exposed and vulnerable, risking everything to be together.
