Premarital Counseling
What better way to begin a lifelong relationship that by learning how to disagree and listen to your fiancé? Premarital counseling is similar to couples therapy, but with a lot more energy and a lot less resentment! I think it’s the best gift you can give each other as a wedding gift. Many couples who are planning to marry within six months come in to get off to a great start. I am conveniently located in Westport Connecticut.
Premarital Counseling and Long-Term Goals
This is the best time to discover if you each really want children, and how many you’d each like, and when you plan to have them. Or if you do. It’s the time to talk about your feelings regarding working, staying at home, finances and in-laws visits. Premarital counseling identifies early challenges that have not yet taken root, which is the challenge with regular couples therapy. Explore your feelings and expectations about finances and lifestyle. Learn what your fiancé’s priorities in life are. Uncover which values you each hold most dear. And get really great with knowing all about each other by listening and asking good questions that show you care.
Premarital Counseling and Communication Tools
Like couples therapy, premarital counseling has a lot to do with gathering tools you will use for a lifetime together. Become great at giving a compliment, or an authentic apologizer. Learn how to listen and be comfortable when your fiancé has different opinions than your own. Come visit me, Lisa Ryan at Advocacy Circle in Westport CT, and learn how to be strong partners and compatible lovers. Start your lives off together by being way ahead of the game!
