Couples usually spend a lot of time and effort preparing for their wedding day but arrive at the altar woefully unprepared for marriage.

The Prepare Inventory is for couples about to embark on a life together as man and wife.  Using an in-depth questionnaire and a personal workbook, I will help you identify the strengths each of you bring to the relationship and areas where you can work together to grow as individuals and as a couple.

We'll discuss communication, conflict resolution, personality issues, financial management, spiritual beliefs, children and parenting, family and friends, sexual expectations, life goals, leisure activities and role relationships.  

More than 50 percent of first marriages end in divorce.   Call today to arrange to do The Prepare Inventory and give yourself  an edge to avoid becoming part of that sad statistic.

PREPARE

PREPARE-MC

family

 

Two people coming together as a married couple is a process filled with promise and challenges.  When one or both of them bring children to the marriage, it brings another dimension to the relationship that requires special attention.

The Prepare-MC Inventory addresses the needs of the husband and wife as they begin life together and also focuses on the unique challenges of blending families.

Using an in-depth questionnaire and a personal workbook, I will help you identify the strengths each of you bring to the relationship and areas where you can work together to grow as individuals and as a family.

We'll discuss communication, conflict resolution, personality issues, financial management, spiritual beliefs, children and parenting, family and friends, sexual expectations, life goals, leisure activities, and role relationships.

We've all heard horror stories of blended families that didn't work.  Call today to arrange to do the Prepare-MC Inventory so your new family will have an edge to avoid becoming one of them.

 

ENRICH

 

couple

 

Most marriages start off with fireworks and bells ringing.  But, in time, many marriages begin to deteriorate into a daily rut or, worse, into a scene of battle.

The Enrich Inventory lets you stop for a moment and take stock of who you are as individuals and as a couple, to evaluate what you want from your marriage, and to work together to build a happier, more loving relationship.

Using an in-depth questionnaire and a personal workbook, I will help you identify your individual strengths and areas where you can work together to grow as a couple and give your marriage a lift.

We'll discuss communication, conflict resolution, personality issues, financial management, spiritual beliefs, children and parenting, family and friends, sexual expectations, life goals, leisure activities, and role relationships.

Far too many marriages end because the husband and wife simply couldn't figure out what was wrong and how to fix it.  Call today to arrange to take the Enrich Inventory and begin to strengthen and enhance your marriage.
