Pre-Marital Counselling
Building A Strong Foundation For Your Marriage
Preparing for marriage is an exciting and transformative time, but it can also bring about a range of emotions and challenges. At Capital Choice Counselling, we believe that premarital counselling is an amazing step you and your partner can take together to support your journey toward a strong and healthy marriage.
Pre-marital counselling gives you the opportunity to dream together, learn how to manage tricky areas of your relationship and grow in both awareness and connection.
Imagining a dream marriage is a lot like imagining a dream Ottawa home. We picture the features, the decorations, and the parts that we want to enjoy and perhaps show off to the world. But like a dream home, the ideal marriage is built on a solid foundation that will stand the test of time. Begin your marriage with your eyes wide open. Contact one of our experienced Ottawa marital counsellors using the tool to the right and start building a healthy, dream marriage before you even say, “I do.”
