This option combines both individual sessions and the workshop. It is the most comprehensive of our marriage preparation options, and couples consistently tell us they greatly benefit from the two experiences.
When you have registered and paid for the couple sessions plus workshop, your therapist (who is certified in using the Prepare/Enrich inventory) will contact you to schedule your four individual sessions and provide a password for you both to go online and answer the Prepare/Enrich pre-marriage inventory questions. Your therapist will use the information provided by the Prepare/Enrich inventory to tailor your sessions.
You will also attend a couples workshop. This workshop will meet virtually over two days and include small group discussions:
- February 28 and March 1: Friday from 5:30 pm-8 pm and Saturday from 9 am-12 pm and 1:30 pm-4 pm.
- Four Wednesdays, 4/23, 4/30, 5/7, 5/14: From 6 pm-8 pm.
- September 5 and 6: Friday from 5:30 pm-8 pm and Saturday from 9 am-12 pm and 1:30 pm-4 pm.
- Four Wednesdays, 10/22,10/29, 11/5, 11/12: From 6 pm-8 pm.
Couples must attend each session.
We offer the combination of the workshop and the four private sessions at the discounted cost of $445. There is an additional $35 cost for the inventory that you pay directly to Prepare/Enrich.
