Chana offers Pre-Marital Counseling for Engaged Couples on Long Island
Whether you’re negotiating how to plan a family, concerned about how to manage finances, or navigating through a 2nd marriage, premarital counseling is the perfect place to discuss all matters related to married life.
Therapy doesn’t always mean a relationship is at its breaking point. Many couples are seeking to address difficult issues before conflict arises.
Every couple that gets engaged should go through premarital counseling. Partners learn how to deal with issues that may arise before they become a problem. This gives couples confidence and peace while stepping into a new chapter of their lives.
Through Imago relationship therapy, couples will learn how to communicate effectively with one another. During sessions with an Imago couples therapist, you may address family origins.
As a counselor, Chana assists couples develop safety and connection within their relationship, such as with:
- Relationship Goals
- Things of Importance / Value: friendships, alone time, date nights
- Conflicts & Communication: learning to argue in the most effective way
- Sex & Intimacy
- Finances: bank accounts, paying bills
- Children / Parenting: if you want children, parenting beliefs & styles
- Family & Blended Families: visiting times, setting boundaries, holidays
- Social & Religious Beliefs
- Making decisions as a couple
- Vacations – Guy’s/Girl’s Trips
- Defining Roles, cooking, shopping, cleaning, taking care of finances
Therapy should be viewed as an act of self care / personal maintenance, a sign of maturity, and overall healthiness.
