Your Marriage is Worth Fighting For!
Yes, your marriage has what it takes.
How do we know this? Because you did an incredible thing when you got married. You chose to honor your love for each other in the most profound way possible: by laying down your life in dedication to the other.
Learn how to make your connection more strong and resilient than ever.
Every rose has its thorns.
We’ve heard time and time again that no marriage is perfect, but many of us enter marriage either believing that our relationship is the exception or simply not prepared for what that actually means! Given the picture-perfect love stories we’ve been saturated with since infancy, many of us develop an ideal for what we believe marriage should be, usually an ideal that isn’t founded in truth.
The truth is that marriage is messy, but it is quintessentially beautiful too. The truth is that you chose one another out of billions of others. The truth is that love encompasses so much more than a feeling. The truth is quite amazing, really.
“No marriage is perfect” really means that every marriage is able to grow better and stronger throughout a lifetime—more beautiful than you could have imagined possible, because it is real and it is yours. Imperfectly perfect.
“But should marriage be this hard?”
Did you wake up one day overwhelmed and exhausted, thinking, “How did we get here?” Many couples feel as though they try to communicate openly, try to get their ideas across, only to find their messages aren’t being heard by their spouse.
How we communicate as individuals and as a couple is not the same thing! Each of us has our own unique habits we’ve built over a lifetime for expressing ourselves, habits that we ourselves may not be aware of! We all express love differently, just as we express and hold onto frustration, hope, and fear differently. It is these differences that can cause us to feel isolated in a relationship. It is what causes too many couples to end their relationship prematurely, without realizing the full potential of what their marriage could be.
We believe that MOST marriages can be saved.
Many couples wonder if they have what it takes to heal. All it takes is a willingness to invest the time and effort needed to revitalize your relationship! Counseling provides you and your spouse that opportunity. You can discuss what’s happening in your relationship without the risk of being shut down, ignored, or disputed. Counseling helps both of you be heard. Together we will create a game plan for moving your relationship forward.
Your marriage is worth fighting for! Take that step today. Make your connection stronger and more resilient than ever! Call now at 321-345-9129 or click below to book a free consult.
Marriage Counseling FAQ
“What if my partner won’t come?”
This is a common concern. Speak to your partner about your desire for counseling and for healing your relationship. If resistant to the idea of counseling, ask your partner if they would consider speaking to a counselor over the phone to answer any questions they might have. If your partner is still not interested, call for a free phone consultation to discuss your next steps. Couples counseling can still work even if only one person begins the process!
“What if counseling makes our fighting worse?”
When considering couples counseling, some worry their partner will not appreciate what is shared during a session and that it will create a fight when they get home afterward. Others are afraid their partner will reveal a secret such as having an affair. We will structure our sessions so that the environment is a safe place to share what is on your heart. Remember: everything worth having requires work and sacrifice. Sometimes things feel like they get worse before they get better, but your relationship cannot grow unless you invest the time and energy toward improvement!
