Prepare & Enrich: Your Foundation for a Stronger Partnership

Welcome to the scientifically-backed program that helps couples build and maintain vibrant, lasting relationships. Whether you’re planning a wedding, navigating the first year of marriage, or facing a major life transition, Prepare & Enrich provides a personalized framework to deepen your connection, improve communication, and celebrate your unique bond.

 

How It Works: The Prepare & Enrich Assessment

The core of our program is the online assessment, tailored to your stage of life. It provides a comprehensive, objective look at your relationship’s strengths and areas for growth.

  1. Personalized Assessment: Each partner independently completes a questionnaire covering 12 relationship scales, including communication, conflict resolution, financial management, and family of origin.
  2. Counsellor Review: A certified counselor reviews your results, highlighting your unique relationship dynamic.
  3. Feedback Sessions: You and your partner meet with the facilitator for a series of sessions focused on key areas, using customized exercises and discussion guides to develop specific skills.
