What is Premarital Therapy?

Premarital therapy is designed to help couples prepare for marriage by exploring essential topics, strengthening communication, and addressing potential challenges before they arise. Whether you're newly engaged or considering long-term commitment, this process provides the tools to navigate your future together with intention.

  • Through guided conversations, I help couples:
    - Improve communication and conflict resolution skills
     - Align expectations around finances, family, intimacy, and lifestyle
    - Understand and navigate differences in values, culture and beliefs
    - Strengthen emotional and physical connection
    - Identify and address potential stress points before they become major issues
