Text Box: Healthy marriages can be the source of unconditional love, good relationship foundations and backgrounds.  One way to discover the path to your perfect mate and marriage is through pre-marital counseling.  Counseling can expose both the strengths and weaknesses in your relationship as well as any unhealthy patterns that can undermine the longevity of any relationship.

It is our experience that couples really value the time spent in preparation for the most significant commitment of their lives -  marriage.  When it comes to couples counseling, sometimes they need a bit of encouragement at first.  Then they express concern about the time and money as they are planning their ceremony.   Once couples recognize counseling is an outlet that allows them to be able to discuss some very delicate subjects, they are grateful for an intermediary forum in order to accomplish this.  On occasion a couple decides, during the process to terminate their relationship, but the breakup after marriage and children is much more painful and difficult to bear.  

Sessions can be scheduled for either one or two hours in length.  Two-hour sessions provide adequate time for the couple to explore issues without interruption.
