What can
you do to prepare for life together? How
do you envision growing as individuals and
as a couple? Do you know your own and each
other’s strengths and weaknesses?
Have you discussed the challenges that you
will face as you make the transition to a
long-term emotionally committed
relationship?
Believe it or not, there are many issues
that newlyweds do not discuss prior to the
big day. Knowing about how each of you
feel about personal values and lifestyle
issues can make a big difference in how
connected you feel now and in the
future.
Our Marriage Preparation Program will give
you the opportunity to discuss raising
children (do you both want to have
children?), double-income work pressures,
in-laws, sexual intimacy and sexual
desire.

Preparing
for Life Together:
Laying
the Foundation for a Lasting Relationship
A
Marriage
Preparation
Program for Couples
This half-day pre-marital counselling program is
tailored to you individually and as a couple.
Preparing
for Life Together
will help you with the daily challenges of living
together in a committed relationship.
Participating
in this program will help you:
- Gain valuable
new insights about love and relationships
- Create a
shared vision of the life you would like to have
together
- Know the
difference between shared values and shared
interests
- Let go of
expectations that inhibit closeness
- Discover new
ways to overcome communication gridlock
- Learn skills
that will help you stay together while growing
as individuals
Preparing
for Life Together
is designed for pre-marital couples of all ages and
relationship experience.
The program
offers the benefits of a workshop, but does so in a
three-hour private session. It will
be like having your own personalized workshop. You
will be given a workbook to take home with you
afterwards. The workbook includes some experiential
learning activities, explanatory notes and a
bibliography for further
reading.
In this
Couple-to-Couple
session (we work as a husband-and-wife
co-counselling team), you will have the opportunity
to discuss openly any personal concerns that you
may have.
You'll
explore some of the challenges that newlyweds --
and in fact, all couples -- face. You will learn
how to grow together as individuals, while
maintaining an emotionally close and committed
relationship. And you'll come away from the session
with new insights and valuable skills to help move
your relationship forward.
If
there are issues that you still need to address
once you have completed the program, you may
continue by visiting us periodically for a
Couple-to-Couple™
session.
The fee for
the program fee is $330.00 (per couple). Payment
can be made in one or two installments to suit your
personal budget.
Payment
Options:
As with all our services, we accept Cash, Cheque,
VISA, MasterCard or AMEX. Counselling services may
be covered by some Extended Health Insurance Plans.
(Please check with your Provider or call us to
discuss this option.)
