Pre-Marital Preparation with a Difference!

Paraklesis offered a contemporary modern pre-marital-prep-approach that deals with:

  • New marriage models that work for you
  • Understanding personality differences and compatibility
  • Gender issues and role differentiation in post-modernity
  • Intimacy and sexual satisfaction
  • Family issues and family planning
  • Explore spiritual beliefs and worldviews
  • Emotional Intelligence and life skills

Topics that also need consideration …

  • Singles and boundaries in dating counselling
  • Pre-Engagement couples counselling
  • Counselling for cohabiting couples getting married
  • Counselling for couples re-marrying
  • Pre-marital family counselling for blended families
    (your kids, my kids and our kids)
  • Counselling for complicated in-law-relationships

Studies have shown that couples who complete marriage preparation programs are 30% less likely to divorce, and report higher levels of commitment and satisfaction than those who don’t.

More than 45% of marriages end in divorce! Pre-marital preparation can make a difference!

Marriage is still very popular
– even among those who cohabit first and then get married
– but ongoing marital satisfaction seems lacking:

40% married couples are unhappy,  40% are neutral, and only 20% are truly happy. Pre-marital preparation can make a difference! 

Don’t fall for the classic marriage myths before you say “I do”.  Don’t settle for traditional outdated pre-marital counselling.

Paraklesis offers marital preparation that will make a difference.
