Aus$300–400
Marriage is a wonderful foundation, allowing a couple to deepen, flourish and commit to each other and their union. Life, though, has its way of bringing up issues and pasts that need resolving, understanding, healing and integrating. Becoming more aware of both your individual natures and your unique shared union can help deepen the good days and give some tools for when difficult moments arise.
What we explore
- How you came together, and the histories, families and heritages each of you brings.
- Where your values meet and differ: children, money, and how you balance work and home life.
- What feels hard to talk about, how to have difficult conversations, and when to take time out or time together.
- Your spoken and unspoken contract, from monogamy and sexuality to who does the cleaning, and what to do if the marriage hits difficulty.
Alongside preparing couples for marriage, Peter offers counselling for individuals and couples, in person and online. About counselling →
