Premarital Counseling in San Antonio, TX

Premarital Counseling in San Antonio - Start Your Marriage Strong

So you're getting married - congratulations! You're probably deep in wedding planning mode (flowers, venues, guest lists, oh my!), but you're also smart enough to know that the marriage is way more important than the wedding day.

That's where we come in. At Sagebrush Counseling, we help San Antonio couples build rock-solid foundations for their marriages before they say "I do."

Why Do Premarital Counseling? (Besides Being Really Smart)

Here's the thing: You probably know how to plan an amazing party, but nobody teaches you how to be married. And while love is awesome, it's not enough to carry you through everything life's going to throw at you.

Most couples think they know each other really well - and you probably do! But there's a difference between knowing someone and knowing how you'll handle life's big stuff together as a married team.

Plus, it's way easier to build good habits now than to fix problems later. Think of this as relationship insurance - the best kind of investment you can make.

What We Actually Talk About (The Real Stuff)

Money, money, money - How do you handle finances? Who pays for what? Saving vs. spending styles? Student loans? This stuff causes more fights than almost anything else.

Family dynamics - How often will you see the in-laws? Whose family traditions do you follow? What happens when your families don't get along?

Communication styles - How do you fight? (Because you will fight, and that's normal!) How do you make decisions together? Who needs space vs. who needs to talk it out immediately?

Life goals and dreams - Kids or no kids? Career priorities? Where do you want to live? What does success look like to each of you?

Intimacy and affection - How do you each show and receive love? Physical intimacy expectations? What happens when life gets stressful?

Daily life logistics - Who does the dishes? How clean is clean enough? Social time vs. couple time? Sounds boring, but this stuff matters!

How We Make It Actually Helpful (Not Awkward)

We keep it real and relaxed. This isn't about scaring you or finding problems - it's about making sure you're both on the same page about the important stuff.

We help you have conversations you might not have thought to have - or ones you've been avoiding because they seem scary.

You'll get actual tools for communication, conflict resolution, and decision-making that you'll use for years to come.

We celebrate what's already working. You chose each other for good reasons - we'll help you identify and build on your strengths as a couple.
