Why Premarital Counseling Is Fantastic

I admire couples who investigate premarital counseling! Your interest signals a healthy curiosity, and suggests that you want to step into your marriage well-equipped, and confident that your foundation is strong.

Premarital counseling doesn't magically solve your issues (every couple has them). Rather, our time together will prepare you and equip you for how to communicate about differences or friction, giving you confidence for the journey ahead.

As a trained PREPARE/ENRICH Facilitator since 2014, I can guide you through one, two, or three sessions of premarital counseling, ensuring that you're entering into your marriage having unpacked and explored the areas that often arise as stumbling blocks in the early years of a couple's life together.

PREPARE/ENRICH is a customized couple inventory, completed online with full privacy, that identifies your strength and growth areas. It's one of the most widely used programs for premarital counseling and premarital education. Based on your inventory results, I provide feedback sessions to affirm what you already do well as individuals and as a couple, explore areas for new skill-building, and help you enter into marriage with clearer expectations.

Due to the enjoyable depth of this collaborative work, Erika requires a minimum of 2 hours (one session) for premarital counseling: $350.
