Premarital Counseling

Premarital Counseling San Diego CA

You wouldn’t set out on a roadtrip without a roadmap, yet so many couples start a life-long commitment without the navigation equipment to build a life that works.  Your San Diego Relationship Therapist Jennine Estes will give you a toolbox full of helpful ways to communicate, discuss financial needs vs. wants, interact with the in-laws... and so much more.

Congratulations on your Engagement!!

This is such a happy and exciting time for you and your relationship.  And while the last thing most couples may consider is Premarital Counseling, it really should be one of the first.   Many couples run into a hyper focus and concentration on the wedding, which can "back-fire" and cause arguments, disagreements, distance, and fear.  All of which are not good traits of a happy bride to be.  Some couples may use the engagement to grow closer to one another, work as a team, and enjoy time building a strong foundation.  Given the chance, I'm sure the ladder of the 2 is where you and your fiance want to be.   I want to help you build a strong and lasting relationship to allow you and your new husband to continue to grow together as one unit through the use of premarital therapy.

Pre-Marital Counseling

Start your marriage on the right foot.

So now that you have said "yes" to your man, it's time to really start planning your new life together.  I can provide pre-marital counseling to help build that foundation to a healthy and ever lasting love.  I work with individuals on a daily basis who want to resolve arguments, improve their communication, and build a healthy foundation.  Using these same skills and some additional couple skill building techniques, we can all work together to mold your marriage into one that will last a lifetime.

So give yourself the best marriage treatment you can by calling and scheduling your first pre-marital counseling session.  Trust me, premarital counseling will be one of your best investments as a married couple.
