Stand together on your wedding day feeling joyously connected, knowing you can navigate anything on your journey of love ahead.

Through premarital counseling, we're here to help you create a solid foundation on which to build a healthy relationship and conscious, thriving marriage that grows deeper and stronger through the years.

Available virtually or online anywhere in the world (via phone or video) or in person in Bloomington, Indiana.

When you get married, the differences and relationship issues you have and the conflicts you've experienced don't just magically go away on their own.

In fact, when unaddressed, things tend to get worse, not better, over time.

However, when you intentionally explore your different perspectives, values, needs, and hopes together in a completely safe and skilled space…

…you get on the same page, you enter into marriage with a solid foundation of knowledge, tools, and relationship advice that lasts for a lifetime, and you feel ready and equipped to create the happiest future.

Having been together 17+ years, we know firsthand what it takes to experience a thriving marriage. Plus, during the past decade, we’ve been honored to help thousands of couples around the world create their own amazing relationships. We’re so excited to help you create yours too.

We have also trained a phenomenal team of coaches and therapists who specialize in helping build relationships that stand the test of time. 

Center for Thriving Relationships

Unfortunately, most couples go an entire lifetime never knowing the things we'll be exploring in our sessions together.

This is why it motivates and exhilarates us to support couples (like you!) who want to proactively grow their love and set themselves up for success.

With premarital counseling, you will save decades of unnecessary struggle and experience so much more ease, joy, and lasting love instead.

Want to make sure you're in the right place?

Premarital counseling is for you if any of the below are true…

You want to be supplied with the best relationship and couples communication tools on the planet and create a strong and resilient foundation for a lifetime of love ahead.

You want to improve your relationship and tap into its greatest potential

You want to transform any of your relationship issues before you get married, so that you can stand together on your wedding day feeling as connected as ever.

You want to be sure you are on the same page with things like finances, household chores, raising kids, religion, sexuality, work/life balance, and more.

You want some support to process all of the natural and normal questions, doubts, fears, and anxieties that may emerge during the engagement process.

You don’t want to make the same mistakes you’ve seen others make or have made personally in the past in relationships.

You want to heal, fix, or repair your relationship from past hurts so they don't spill over into your marriage.

You want to know on your wedding day that you are getting married, not to fix things, but to celebrate the thriving relationship you already have.

If so, we celebrate and congratulate you! We LOVE supporting couples in their journey before making one of the biggest commitments of your life.

Unfortunately, most couples seek out marriage counseling and couples therapy once infidelity has happened or to stop divorce and try to save their marriage. Again and again, the #1 thing we hear them say is: "we only wish we had this information sooner. It would have saved us years of heartache."

We are so excited to help set you up for the best and strongest marriage ever. You get to be one of those couples others look up to for inspiration.
