Marriage. One of the biggest decisions we make in life! There is pressure of finding the right partner, and even when we do, there is that underlying worry of “will we be able to make it work forever?” Premarital Counseling works wonders for both partners to gain the skills necessary to prepare for their marriage, eliminate fears, and explore the specific needs of your own relationship.
What To Expect
Premarital counseling paves the way to enhance effective communication and develop better conflict management skills. Together, we bridge the gaps in communication by arranging collaborative discussion in sessions with both partners, together and separately if necessary. We help in stimulating useful dialogues among partners and help them discover the various aspects of their personality and relationships for better success as a unit.
It can often be a challenging task to bring two different people together and be on the same page about certain matters. However, at Brightside Therapy, we work closely with our clients to map out the relationship origin, communication patterns, and areas in need of improvement to help boost love, affection, and manage conflict more efficiently. During our premarital counseling sessions, the therapist will also discuss the couples expectations towards one another. This helps in bringing the couple closer to their goals and prepared for their future together! I use a direct, collaborative, and educational approach in my Premarital Counseling service to facilitate these skills that will help you throughout your life together and thrive in your marriage!
What Are The Benefits of Premarital Counseling?
-
Reduces Risk of Divorce
No matter how hard we may work and want to be a better partner, there are many risk factors which can bring your relationship to the brink of divorce. Getting divorced is not the goal! Premarital counseling assists you in learning the essential knowledge, skills, and insider tricks to make your relationship last with strong marital satisfaction.
-
Enhances Communication
Communication plays a central role in developing connection and understanding between couples. Most kinds of expressions are based on verbal or behavioral communication. Brightside Therapy’s Premarital Counseling services will help you in boosting communication at a deeper level to aid in better conversations and creating better conflict management skills.
-
Improves Understanding
Before you get married to someone, Premarital Counseling will help you in charting out the essential insight of you and your partner’s wants, needs, boundaries and more. This practice is useful for developing an element of support and respect between the two partners, preparing the relationship for that next step!
-
Reinforces Intimacy
Intimacy and affection can change and grow with time. They evolve. Premarital Counseling can help you in devising useful strategies to nurture intimacy, friendship, and affection among partners during their lifespan.
-
Role Assignment
Whether you are a wife, a mother, a husband, or a father, it is essential to define your character, your perspectives, values, and opinions so that you can fulfill your roles accordingly. Instead of letting you wander down the path of confusion, our Premarital Counseling services can help you in exploring you and your partner’s idea of role assignments for a more fulfilling, successful marriage.
-
Sharing Mutual Values
Understanding is the key to living a long-term relationship. It is vital for couples to arrive at mutually agreeable grounds which not only highlight their hopes, dreams, desires, and mutual interests but help to explore for areas where compromise may be needed. Sharing mutual values helps in building stronger connections.
-
Reduces Stress
Every marriage or relationship undergoes a unique set of stressors. Whether it is financial or emotional stress, what matters the most is how the couple manages these stressors. Premarital Counseling can aid in teaching practical strategies which can help the couples in overcoming different familial and non-familial stressors that may arise throughout the marriage.
Research Based Approach
In today’s modern world of mainstream lifestyle blogs, it is hard to find authentic information and tips to become successful in marriage. Most of the lifestyle websites and relationship bloggers report on the same kind of information over and over again. It is important to remember that not every approach works for every couple. The great diversity in couples demands an even more versatile approach towards resolving matters based on the couple’s specific needs. At Brightside Therapy, we take active roles in offering valuable tips and tested strategies to couples so that they can unlock the incredible potential for their marriage. We help you in discovering on how you can enjoy your married life to the fullest. Our intuitive approach is deeply integrated with research-based information so that only useful information is shared with our clients.
Prepare for the Future Together
Marriage is all about spending the rest of your life with one person. As frightening as this idea can seem, marriage is full of beautiful moments. Brightside Therapy collaborates with each partner so that the individual strengths, desires, goals, and resources can be highlighted and utilized for the betterment of that relationship. Be prepared to envision a future with your partner to aid in exploring the necessary skills needed to reach its maximum potential. Future planning and predictions are quite useful in digging deep into the areas of your relationship that may need some fine tuning.
Explore Unseen Potential
Believe it or not, most couples are never fully aware of just how much potential of growth and intimacy their relationship has. Premarital Counseling sessions with Brightside Therapy is a fantastic way to explore all the possibilities in which both partners can fulfill their goals, needs, and desires without having to compromise the core values of your relationship.
