The Great Start program is an 8-hour training designed to provide a way of educating couples who are seriously dating, recently engaged, or newly married. This training was developed using the research of many leaders in the field of couples therapy such as John Gottman, David Olsen, Scott Stanley and R.J. Sternberg. It is utilizing their research that makes this training a sound exercise for couples.

This program is designed to set your marriage up for success. We will be discussing many topics to help you increase longevity and satisfaction in your marriage. A few of the topics discussed are listed below:
· Communication
· Expectations
· Financial Wisdom
· Emotional and Physical Intimacy
· Affair-proofing Your Marriage
· Problem Solving/ Problem Resolution
The learning process for couples comes through many forms. There will be instructional training given from a facilitator/presenter. There will also be a few group participation conversations and activities. Additionally, a significant amount of time is given for the couples to discuss specific questions and topics that lead to a better understanding of themselves and their partner.
We have worked hard to make this workshop as affordable as possible. The cost is $150 per couple, which covers the cost of the materials needed to run the workshop, the physical materials you will be taking home with you and refreshments provided (lunch is on your own).
This training is done entirely in a group setting and does not offer one-on-one time with a counselor. However, during the class time, there will be times when we will prompt you with a certain discussion topic and give you time to discuss and work through it as a couple at your individual table. Additionally, at the close of the training, you will be given the opportunity to set up additional couples counseling sessions if there are things you want to continue talking about or working through as a couple with one of the therapists leading the training.
