Many people fantasize about the day that they get married. They create Pinterest boards, filled with ideas for a venue, dress, and flower arrangement as early as 13 years old. And when they’re finally engaged, they talk excitedly with their partner about the beautiful wedding and wonderful day they’ll have in just a few short months. What they often don’t discuss, is how they’ll continue to foster a happy, healthy relationship and create a marriage that lasts.

“Every successful marriage is the result of two people working diligently and skillfully to cultivate their love.”

–Henry Ward Beecher

If you and your partner are thinking about marriage, or you’re already engaged, consider working with a premarital counselor. These professionals help couples to understand if marriage is right for them and then to get ready for that life-long commitment. Premarital counseling often involves working through current issues, discussing concerns about marriage, and improving communication efforts.

Reach out to Thriveworks Sterling Heights in Macomb, MI today to begin work with one of our premarital counselors. Every provider at Thriveworks is carefully chosen, based on their expertise and their experience. We have counselors on staff who specialize in helping couples discuss marriage and build a happy life together for many years to come.

Benefits of Premarital Counseling

As we touched on above, premarital counseling can benefit engaged couples as well as couples who are still talking about the possibility of marriage. It proves to prevent divorce, as it helps couples to understand if they’re a good fit as well as how they can weather the storms together.

The premarital counselors at Thriveworks Sterling Heights in Macomb County will work with you and your partner to understand what your relationship needs to have a successful marriage. Some topics that might come up or that commonly come up in premarital counseling include:

  • Role expectations
  • Interests and hobbies
  • Work schedules
  • Intimacy
  • Children
  • Parenting Styles
  • 5-year, 10-year visions

How Does Premarital Counseling Work?

Once your Thriveworks Sterling Heights premarital counselor in Macomb understands the needs of your relationship, they will customize your treatment plan. Some premarital counselors will decide to meet with each individual separately, in addition to working with the couple together, to best understand individual concerns and attitudes. Others will only work with the couple together, so as to focus on the two as one entity from the very start. In either case, as premarital counseling progresses, you and partner will work through problem areas, better understand the true vision of a marriage between the two of you and acquire tools for happy relationship building.

Your Thriveworks Sterling Heights premarital counselor in Macomb might also use resources to help you and your partner along. For example, they might give you a Couples Resource map, which assist each individual in finding helpful resources and strategies for managing conflict. You would likely complete this map after your therapy session and bring it back with you for each appointment.
