Our Marriage Enrichment approach has helped countless couples throughout Hampton Roads strengthen their bonds, deepen their connection, and build more satisfying relationships that stand the test of time.
What is Marriage Enrichment?
Marriage Enrichment is a proactive approach designed for couples who want to strengthen functional relationships. Rather than focusing primarily on problems, we build on existing strengths while addressing growth areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
While traditional marriage counseling often focuses on resolving conflicts or problems, Marriage Enrichment takes a more proactive, growth-oriented approach. We certainly address challenges, but we place equal emphasis on enhancing strengths and creating positive experiences together.
Many couples have solid foundations but want more depth, connection, or alignment. Marriage Enrichment helps good relationships become exceptional through intentional skill-building and connection practices.
Most couples participate in 8-12 sessions, though some continue with periodic "tune-up" sessions throughout different life stages. The process is flexible and based on your specific goals.
We address the disconnection that can develop over years of busy lives, parenting, and career demands. This structured approach has helped many long-married couples find renewed enthusiasm and deeper connection.
