Why is Pre-marital Coaching Helpful?

(Or, Would you quarterback a Super Bowl with no training? ) 

Marriage is like flying to the Bahamas for a relaxing vacation and arriving instead in Outer Mongolia.  In winter.  Now I’m told that Mongolia can be a great place, but it isn’t what you expected, and the novelty wears off pretty fast. 

As you’ve probably heard, about half of married couples divorce; the risk is even higher in subsequent marriages,  and many of the survivors are miserable. So how do you increase your odds of a healthy, happy marriage?

Good,  or even “good enough,” marriages don’t just happen.  

Isn’t love and commitment enough?   No, not these days. 
Roles and expectations are different, and more people have the resources to leave unhappy marriages.  You need skills, too. Skills like communication, negotiation, and how to repair conflict. 
.  
     Do you know what behavior is most predictive of divorce?  
     Do you know what to do when your partner nags?  Stonewalls? 
     Do you know how to get them to change?  
     What if you have big differences in desire?

My approach is practical and educational, with no embarrassing exercises.  The focus is on the future, so there's no long history of your family or your problems.  

You’ll learn how to talk smarter, and act in ways that can change your life. 

Call for individual sessions or every-other-week evening small group coaching.  Fun and affordable!
