What is pre-marital counseling?

The best investment a young couple can make is in their relationship.Premarital counseling goes beyond prevention by preparing a couple for the rigors of a relationship and shaping its future and quality. It is intervention at the absolutely best time, when two people have just made a commitment to spend the rest of their lives together.
It is far more challenging and unlikely for a couple who have been married for thirty years to learn how to communicate intimately when they hadn’t to begin with, unless of course, both people are ready to do what it takes.

“Relationship training” is a process of education and communication skills-building. Based on the premise that relationships continue from where they begin; that is, the patterns set at the beginning will continue throughout the course of the developing relationship. If a couple can learn how to communicate intimately with each other from the beginning, they will continue to do so throughout the course of their relationship.
