Are you and your partner considering marriage or perhaps even have a date set? Getting married is a significant step in any person’s life. We firmly believe that it is a step worth preparing for. For this reason, we offer a range of premarital counseling programs in both our Ridgeland and Flowood locations. Premarital sessions are designed for all couples — whatever their background — that are planning to embark on a new journey together. During these sessions, we will help you identify the strengths of your relationship as well as teach you some skills that will help you throughout your journey as a married couple. Take a look at some of the main areas we cover in our premarital sessions:
- Identifying personal and joint goals you may have, discussing any potential obstacles you may perceive in attaining them
- Focusing on communication skills and conflict resolution strategies which will allow you to turn potential conflict into a positive force
- Devising strategies for joint financial planning and budget setting
- Identifying existing problem areas and issues that impact your relationship now or that you perceive might impact it in the future
- Pinpoint stress factors and external triggers that might be a source of frustration (e.g. work-life balance, wedding stress, intimacy, etc.)
Premarital counseling is an excellent investment for your future with your loved one. Newlyweds experience a range of different challenges in their first years together, so gaining the necessary tools and methods to face these challenges is extremely valuable.
