PreMarital Counseling


You’re getting married. Congratulations!

You’ve got BIG DREAMS for a beautiful life together but you also know the unfortunate reality is 50% of marriages end in divorce.

DID YOU KNOW…

Of those marriages that didn’t make it, a recent study showed nearly 100% of couples chose to divorce due to a lack of commitment, communication problems or financial differences.

I know what you’re thinking.

You know all about the statistics, but you don’t think you’ll be one of them.

Here’s the thing. None of those couples thought “it” would happen to them either.

You’re probably nodding your head saying, “yeah, but..."

  • We’ve been together 5+ years and already know each other

    inside and out. There are no surprises to come

  • We’ve been living together for years and already know each other’s habits

    and what to expect once we’re married. What else is left to know?

  • Our love is strong. It will get us through anything

HERE'S WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW...

The statistics stay the same regardless of how well you know, how much you love or how many years you’ve lived with your partner.

Why?

Because your marriage license is more than just a piece of paper. The moment you sign it, your relationship will make a significant shift.

As a married couple, you’ll be faced with a whole new set of challenges that only married couples experience from combining finances, starting a family and the legal responsibilities that come with being a spouse.

You’re determined not to be a statistic. You understand married life won’t be easy, and you’re willing to put in the work to save your marriage before it even begins.

YOU MAY NOT KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HAS IN STORE, but, as a soon-to-be-married couple, you know this;

YOU WANT TO BEGIN YOUR LIVES TOGETHER WITH EVERY POSSIBLE ADVANTAGE.

YOU WANT:

  • to build your marriage on more than just a hope and a prayer

  • to go from GUESSING what your partner needs from you to feel loved to KNOWING beyond a doubt

  • to connect with your partner on a deeper level

  • to continue growing in love long after you say your I Do’s

  • to be in the 50% of marriages that make it


    THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT YOU’LL GET WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER THROUGH PREMARRIAGE COACHING!

Here's the deal...

While it’s true 2 become 1 in marriage, the reality is you were created as 2 separate people who see the world differently.

The secret to a successful marriage begins by understanding and appreciating your differences so you can learn how to use them to your advantage as you begin your marriage journey.

The most exciting difference you’ll discover through coaching is your partner’s unique communication language. And, I’ve got news for you. It’s not the same one you speak!

WHY does it matter?

Because you can talk to one another all day long, but it means NOTHING if neither of you are understood .

The majority of the couples I work with tell me they struggle with communication the most in their relationship. During our sessions, they realize why that is; they’re speaking in their native language, NOT their partner’s.

The good news? You’ll not only learn your partner’s language through PreMarital Counseling, you’ll be able to speak it fluently!

Why PreMarital Counseling?

Relationship studies show online PreMarital Counseling or Coaching can increase the odds of a successful marriage by as much as 30%.

That’s HUGE y’all!

And, couples that participate in a PreMarital Counseling or Coaching Education Program SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE CHANCE OF DIVORCE and experience a successful, fulfilling marriage over those that don’t.

YOU DON’T NEED A ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL RELATIONSHIP BOOK OR COOKIE-CUTTER VIDEO SERIES TO TEACH YOU WHAT A HEALTHY MARRIAGE LOOKS LIKE.

  • A Proven Strategy to mastering communication effectively by discovering the language your partner speaks so that a communication wall doesn’t build between you and your spouse that becomes painful to tear down

  • Personalized action steps you can take NOW to grow closer, create understanding and stay connected

  • Personal 1-on-1 guidance from your PreMarital Coach to support you and your heart-centered relationship regardless of the challenges life throws at you


THIS and SO MUCH MORE is available to you inside my online PreMarital Counseling program!

THROUGH COACHING YOU'LL:

  • Discover the different expectations you’re both bringing into your new marriage,

so there won’t be any surprises when you get there

  • Learn how to speak your partner’s communication “language”

so you can communicate and connect on a deeper level than you ever thought possible

  • Stop the guesswork by finding out what your partner REALLY needs

to feel loved to create the intimacy you both crave

  • Learn your partner’s sensitive, HOT topics and the secret to bringing it up in conversation

without the fear of starting World War 4.

What is Symbis?

My Pre-Marriage Coaching program is based on the renowned SYMBIS® (Save Your Marriage Before it Starts) Personality Assessment that has literally helped millions of couples gain the knowledge they need before they begin settling into destructive patterns that often lead to separation and divorce.

Taken separately, the Assessment combines your individual answers to create a personalized roadmap for marriage success and give you an inside look at what your marriage will look like after you say your I Do’s!

My job as your PreMarital Coach is to help you unpack your results, understand your differences and show you how to use them to your advantage!

Meet your Coach

Hi, I’m Kristi!

As a Certified Master Relationship Coach, I’ve helped engaged couples just like you prepare for their new marriage by giving them the tools they need to communicate effectively, successfully resolve conflict and create a deeper connection with their partner so they can experience a fulfilling marriage that lasts a lifetime!

How is My Program Different?

You’ll find a handful of other Coaches that also offer PreMarriage Education with SYMBIS. So, WHY work with me?

While it’s true my coaching program includes the SYMBIS Assessment, it’s only based on it.

Thanks to feedback from the couples I’ve worked with over the years, my coaching program is packed full of additional helpful resources you won’t find anywhere else to help you put into practice what you’ve learned right away!

And, unlike other premarital programs based on the SYMBIS Assessment, I've created a condensed version for busy couples on a budget so every couple can have access to premarital education. Check out Fast Track here.
