Premarital Counseling

THINKING ABOUT MARRIAGE?

Are you ready for married?  How do I decide if I’m ready to take the next step?  Have I had the right kind of conversations to move forward? How do I stimulate the right kind of conversation with my mate? What types of issues should we discuss before marriage? Which assessment tools are the most effective? What sort of materials will allow us to get the most from our time and effort?

​
