...Mastering Relationship Skills for Couples
If you are a couple contemplating marriage or commitment, premarital or prewedding counseling is for you. I provide religion neutral and non-religious counseling. Research shows that taking the time to prepare for marriage or commitment can make a substantial difference in a relationship's quality, resilience, and longevity.
The transition to marriage can be a challenge for many couples. What are the differences between couples who succeed and couples who do not? Attending a few sessions with an experienced couples counselor can help you answer that question.
A few sessions of couples counseling can significantly ease the transition to the next step in your relationship. The skills acquired during the process can help your relationship weather the storms that inevitably occur. Couples attend individualized sessions, tailored to their needs and styles.
Building a solid relationship requires couples to:
- Create a Couples Resource Map
- Learn ways to fill an "emotional" bank account
- Develope ways to manage conflicts
- Create rituals of connection
- Define your vision for your relationship
Many couples wait until the relationship is off track before
they seek help from a marriage counselor.
Investing some time with a trained expert to acquire skills for intimacy and good communication can help to ensure a solid couple relationship right from the start.
