Not Just Your Wedding!

Pre-engagement Counseling - Premarital Counseling - Premarital Education
in Abilene, Texas or online from anywhere.

Most couples spend more time planning their weddings than preparing for their marriages.
And, most marriages end in divorce!
Doesn't it make sense to Prepare yourselves as best you can for
the most important human relationship you will ever have?

Introducing

The "Prepare" Premarital Inventory
A Computer Analyzed Evaluation Of An Engaged Couple's Relationship
Prepare's Effectiveness Has Been Documented
By More Scientific Studies Than Any Other Premarital Program!
Cost: $55 per couple
Using a set of questions, PREPARE evaluates a couple's relationship in 15 different areas, identifying those which are Relationship STRENGTHS and the ones
which are Relationship GROWTH areas.
In follow-up "feedback" counseling sessions, the report is interpreted for the couple, and they are guided through a process that affirms their relationship strengths and equips them to address their relationship growth areas.  You Take the inventory ONLINE!

The 15 areas evaluated by the PREPARE inventory are:

Marriage Expectations

Personality Issues

Communication

Conflict Resolution

Financial Management

Leisure Activities

Sexual Expectations

Children & Parenting

Family & Friends

Role Relationship

Spiritual Beliefs

Couple Closeness

Family Closeness

Couple Flexibility

Family Flexibility

Paul White has counseled hundreds of premarital couples over a period of more than 30 years.
In all that time only ONE couple that he has counseled is known to have divorced!
The counseling is from a Christian perspective, but he will not attempt to persuade you to believe what he believes.
 The Prepare inventory is $55 and there are two options for the counseling: (1) By the session ($45), with each session
lasting 1-3 hours, or (2) a package that includes as many sessions as needed (average 10-12 sessions) for $150.
 

One of the newest trends is pre-engagement counseling. Many couples choose to evaluate their relationship
before they make the formal commitment of engagement. PREPARE is an excellent way to do this since
it almost 90% effective in predicting successful marriages.

Paul White is a Certified Prepare/Enrich Counselor, a Certified Biblical Counselor and has more than
 30 years of counseling experience.  He is completing a certification in sex counseling.
Paul is passionate about helping people have happy, successful marriages. He and his wife Brenda have been
happily married for more than 40 years and he loves helping others to have the same experience.
He does counseling as a ministry and because he earns his living primarily in other
ways he is able to provide counseling at a much lower cost.
However he is  not a Licensed Professional Counselor.
 In the event he feels that issues surfaced in the counseling process are beyond his skill,
training and ability, he will refer the couple to a licensed professional counselor,
which the couple may choose to contact, or not, as they see fit.

Look at the studies confirming the validity of Prepare in predicting marital satisfaction and divorce.
