Premarital Counseling: Building a Marriage That Lasts a Lifetime
It is so easy to get swept up in the magic of wedding planning—the venue, the guest list, the flowers. But at Relevant Connections, we believe the most important part of your wedding isn’t the day itself; it’s the decades that come after.
Most couples spend more time planning their honeymoon than they do planning their partnership. I created our premarital program to help you change that. We want to help you move past the “honeymoon phase” with a clear roadmap, a shared language, and the tools to handle whatever life throws your way.
Beyond Compatibility: The SYMBIS Advantage
Our therapists are certified facilitators for SYMBIS (Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts), one of the most respected and research-backed premarital assessments in the world.
When you work with me, we don’t just “talk about your future.” We use the SYMBIS assessment to uncover the deep, often unspoken “Relevant Connections” in your relationship:
Your Marriage Mindset: How your upbringing shaped your view of what a “good” marriage looks like.
The “Money Dance”: Moving past budgets and into the emotional meaning behind how you save and spend.
Communication & Conflict: Identifying your “hot buttons” and learning how to argue in a way that leads to connection rather than distance.
Spiritual & Relational Intimacy: Aligning your values and expectations for your life together.
A Trauma-Informed Start
What makes our premarital counseling unique is that we don’t just look at the data; we look at the attachment. Because our entire team is EMDR-trained, we understand that even in the happiest seasons, old wounds or “blueprints” from our past can quietly influence how we show up for our partner.
We help you identify these patterns early, so you can enter your marriage with a clean slate and a nervous system that feels safe and connected.

We offer structured sessions designed to fit into your busy schedule before the big day. Our goal is to provide a space that is fun, insightful, and deeply grounding.
