What is Premarital Couples Therapy?

Well, I’ve never worked with a pastor (and I never would) but here’s a few things to consider when looking for a couples therapist that specializes in pre-marital work:

🌟Find a licensed marriage and family Therapist—they’re trained to work with multiple people in a room!

🌟 Get ready to talk openly about the future, past trauma(s), and expectations for your union.

🌟Tell your individual therapist, if you have one, because both therapists can talk and help the process together. Remember, you’ll need to sign a ROI on both ends before this happens.

🌟 Couples/Pre-Marital is just like any other therapy, except there are more people in the room and there’s a focus on the relationship. It doesn’t mean you stay focused on relational needs but you’ll start there and add to your goals as you go through the process.
