Build a Strong Foundation Before You Say “I Do”
Planning a wedding takes months. Building a marriage takes intention.
Premarital counseling helps engaged couples strengthen their relationship, improve communication, and prepare for the challenges and transitions that come with married life. Whether you're recently engaged or approaching your wedding date, investing in your relationship now can help create a stronger, more secure partnership for years to come.
At Psychology Specialists of Maine, our licensed couple therapists use the nationally recognized Prepare/Enrich assessment to help you gain deeper insight into your relationship and identify areas of strength and growth.
What You'll Gain from Premarital Counseling
Through a personalized assessment and therapist-guided feedback, you will:
Strengthen communication and conflict resolution skills
Develop a deeper emotional connection
Better understand each other's needs, expectations, and relationship patterns
Learn how to navigate stress and major life transitions as a team
Discuss important topics such as finances, intimacy, family relationships, parenting, and future goals
Build skills that support long-term relationship satisfaction
The Prepare/Enrich Assessment
Prepare/Enrich is one of the most widely used and researched premarital counseling programs available. The assessment provides a comprehensive look at your relationship, highlighting areas of strength while identifying opportunities for growth.
Your therapist will review the results with you and help translate the findings into practical strategies you can use in everyday life.
