COUPLES THERAPY to ensure you are both on the same page spiritually

A wedding is one of life’s most significant celebrations; in fact, the sacrament of marriage has great value for the whole Christian community and for the couple whose decision is such that it cannot be improvised or made hastily. Today we are witnessing an accentuated deterioration of the family and a certain corrosion of the values of marriage, and the number of divorces and separations is increasing, even during the first years of married life.

Couples therapy alerts the couple to the transitions they can expect within married life and to prepare them for the most immediate transition—moving from singleness to married life.

Couples therapy prepares couples to anticipate unpredictable transitions in the journey ahead and make them realistic about their expectations of themselves and each other. In real life, human love is like a tide; ebbing and flowing and there will be seasons of ecstasy when the tide rushes in, and disappointment when the treacherous rocks of the relationship are exposed.

How will the Christian couple's commitment to the Christian ideals of respect and caring impact their responses to one another when difficulties arise? Dealing with these types of issues in Couples therapy will give the couple a sense of the twists and turns of married life they can expect.

Re-evaluate the decision to marry

Couples therapy provides a chance for the couple to re-evaluate their decision to marry because therapy often highlights things like immaturity or relationship difficulties, and then it might be advisable to postpone the wedding or even reconsider the decision to marry each other.
