Build a Strong Foundation for Your Future Together
Are you engaged (congratulations!) or considering engagement? Pre-marital counseling is a powerful way to deepen your connection, strengthen communication, and prepare for a healthy, lasting marriage. At Full Bloom Counseling, we offer Prepare-Enrich-based pre-marital counseling to help couples navigate important topics before saying “I do.”
Prepare-Enrich: A Personalized Approach
We use the Prepare-Enrich assessment, a trusted, research-backed tool that helps identify your relationship’s strengths, challenges, and areas for growth. This personalized roadmap helps you and your partner focus each session on the topics that matter most—like communication, conflict resolution, intimacy, finances, and future goals.
Whether you’re newly engaged or preparing for a long-term commitment, this approach ensures you get the most out of your time together and feel empowered heading into marriage.
Topics We’ll Explore Together
In our sessions, we’ll explore key areas that commonly affect marriages and partnerships. These include:
- Communication styles – How you listen, speak, and navigate conflict
- Values & expectations – What matters most to each of you individually and as a couple
- Sexual intimacy & physical connection – Building trust, consent, and closeness
- Money matters – Spending habits, financial goals, and budgeting as a team
- Family planning & parenting visions – If and how you envision a family
- Dealing with stress & external pressures – Navigating life transitions together
These conversations are guided, collaborative, and nonjudgmental—meant to help you learn about yourselves and each other with openness and care.
Frequently Asked Questions About Pre-Marital Counseling
Do we have to be engaged to start pre-marital counseling?
Not at all. While many couples come to us during their engagement, others are in long-term relationships or considering a deeper commitment. Pre-marital counseling is about preparing intentionally—not following a specific timeline.
What if one of us is unsure about marriage?
That’s okay. Counseling can be a space to explore that uncertainty openly and honestly. Our goal isn’t to push you toward marriage but to help you communicate clearly, understand one another better, and make informed decisions as a couple.
Is this therapy religious or faith-based?
Not by default. While the Prepare-Enrich assessment can include spiritual components if you choose, our approach is inclusive and tailored to your values. We support couples from all backgrounds, belief systems, and identities.
Can we do this if we’ve already started planning our wedding?
Absolutely. Even if your wedding date is approaching, it’s never too late to invest in your relationship. The tools you learn now can support you through your first year of marriage and beyond.
