Premarital Counseling / Relationship Check-up

You're excited to be moving to this next chapter in your relationship! What will you wear? Who will you invite? When's the big day? You're spending lots of time planning for the wedding, but have you started planning for the marriage?

You know you want a long-lasting healthy marriage, maybe one better than the relationships you saw growing up, but how do you get there? Perhaps you've lived together long before getting engaged and think premarital counseling isn't for you. You might already know what you expect from your relationship after marriage. But do you clearly understand what your partner expects from marriage? Have you developed a clear plan for how your marriage will handle the most common marriage pitfalls? 

A happy and enduring relationship is possible. We are so excited you’ve found your way to Rebel Heart Therapy and can't wait to be a part of the process.

What to Expect

Our premarital counseling program lasts 6-14 sessions, depending on your relationship's needs.

You'll begin with an online couple's assessment. Before your first session, you and your partner will complete a confidential questionnaire to help your counselor identify your strengths and growth areas without disclosing your answers to your partner.

When you meet for your first session, your counselor will review your results with you and map out your customized premarital counseling program based on your results.

You will receive a copy of your results and a workbook of couples exercises to complete with your counselor and at home. At the end of the program, you will also receive a certificate of completion.
