Marriage Transformation LLC offers confidential assessment and coaching to couples about their relationship or marriage strength and growth areas. Coaches are Susanne M. Alexander and Craig A. Farnsworth.
This is a valuable process that can assist a couple with being certain they are ready to marry or with supporting a marriage that needs strengthening. It is not in-depth therapy, but rather an education process focused on understanding and building on your current strengths and assisting you with identifying and strengthening weak areas.
Topics Covered
The type of assessment varies somewhat depending on your relationship status and life circumstances. However, it generally covers these areas:
- Expectations
- Personality Issues
- Communication
- Conflict Resolution
- Financial Management
- Leisure Activities
- Sexual Expectations/Issues
- Children/Parenting
- Family/Friends
- Role Relationship
- Spiritual Beliefs
The following PREPARE/ENRICH couple assessments are available:
PREPARE is for couples who are planning to marry, are not cohabiting, and do not have children.
PREPARE-MC is for couples who are planning to marry and who currently have children (can apply to both cohabitating and non-cohabitating couples).
PREPARE-CC is designed for cohabiting couples without children who are planning to marry.
ENRICH is for married couples seeking couple enrichment or counseling.
MATE is for couples 50 years old or older who are planning to marry or facing other life transitions such as retirement or relocation.
Process
At least one person must have an email address. A link to an online assessment is then provided to one or both of the email addresses for the couple. The couple separately, without discussion, completes the on-line assessment. Once both have completed the assessment, you are free to discuss whatever you wish. We receive a report from Life Innovations as soon as both of the assessments are complete. We then schedule confidential phone, on-line, or in-person appointments with you both together. These follow-up sessions generally total 3-6 hours. For sessions done at a distance, we can use a webcam as appropriate.
Your follow-up sessions include in-depth discussions of your strengths and growth areas as a couple, and they include some some skills practice or recommendations for further growth.
Note for PREPARE/MATE participants: We will not tell you if you should marry or not. The assessment and the feedback, however, will give you strong indications of your potential to have a lasting marriage, or the actions needed to achieve this.
Note for ENRICH/MATE participants: We will not advise you about divorce. Our role is to support you in having a strong and lasting marriage or being clear that it might be unwise for you to marry. The future of your relationship is up to you as a couple.
Participants receive a complimentary copy of one of our books and other materials. For information on these books, please visit our
e-store or call us at 800-501-6682 or 216-383-9943.
