Pre-Marital Counselling
Pre-Marital Counseling
Premarital counseling can help couples improve their relationships before marriage.
What is Pre-Marital Counselling?
Getting married is one of the most important milestones in our lives. It is an untraversed route for the most of the people. However, marriage has many factors which many of us are not aware of till we experience it. Men and women both have unique physical, emotional and sexual needs and desires. Their way of thinking and perceiving typically differs from each other. You might be having a love marriage or an arranged marriage. But does it imply you know your partner very well, and you won’t ever have any issues and troubles? For this, you need to make certain that you solve all the obvious problems you could have after marriage, before-hand. That’s the role of a pre-marital counselling session. It is not something you go for if you think your relationship is in trouble. With a few sessions with the counsellor, you will be able to understand each other better, you can identify and address any potential areas of conflict in a relationship early on, ask questions your partner that might not have thought of to ask, make you discuss topics of issues with yourself, and teach partners effective techniques for discussing and resolving conflict.
Why Pre-marital Counseling is important?
Many people think that "counselling" from therapists is only for people who are already in the midst of conflicts. But that is not always the case. Conducting a pre-marital counselling helps you and your partner learn how to identify issues in their relationship and equipping them with the skills needed to work through present and future conflicts. Pre-marital counselling is highly recommended for couples in the engagement stage of marriage. It is a form of family therapy designed to help couples stay connected during times of crisis.
What Does Premarital Counselling Do?
Pre-Marital Counselling is a conversation between a licensed counsellor and the soon to be married couples. During premarital counselling sessions, you, your partner, and your counsellor learn about what makes your relationship thick. Counsellor helps you to get a realistic view of yourself, your partner, and your relationship. Only you know what you desire in a partner and a relationship. Once you've found a partner that meets your desires and vice versa, you may consider marriage. Taking part in pre-marital counselling sessions help you to learn more about yours and your partner’s wishes. Common problems to address in pre-Marital counselling sessions are physical needs, emotional needs, financial needs, sexual preferences, religion, and having children.
