Marriage is sacred. Premarital Assessment and Planning helps couples begin the journey with a focus on connection and a deeper understanding of each other’s needs and expectations.
Please note: this is not therapy. The premarital program is designed to facilitate discussions between significant others to develop greater insight into your strengths and growth areas. If you are wanting to pursue therapeutic services, whether that be individual or couples therapy in preparation for your marriage, please contact us to schedule your first therapy session, or feel free to reach out to the licensed mental health professional of your choice.

Customized
The questions are based on each couple’s unique background and are tailored for previous marriage, children, age, living arrangement, and more. Couples feel accurately represented when taking their premarital assessment.

Prepare/Enrich helps couples see an unbiased, clearer picture so you can dive deep to work on the important subjects.

Using an assessment as framework for working with couples will help you. Prepare/Enrich has supported over 100,000 counselors and clergy to build your confidence in working with couples. In addition, it can help the couple build confidence in their decision to move towards the next step in their relationship.
