Considering marriage and planning for a wedding is truly an exciting time. We all move into the springtime of marriage with joy, anticipation and hope. The future is filled with new possibility and merging of dreams. Preparing for a life together may be one of the most important things you do in your lifetime. It is wise to take time with this relationship during this season. It can mean the difference between a lifetime of challenges and a lifetime of realistic and joyful expectations.

How Dr. Bisignano Works With Premarital Couples

Dr. Bisignano approaches premarital counseling with the philosophy that if a couple learns to invest and work at making their marriage healthy and positive, they will have an exceptional marriage, one that can last for a lifetime. She thinks every couple would agree that this is what they want for their marriage. This is what she wants for your marriage: a “happily ever after” story.

Dr. Bisignano begins with a thorough assessment of your relationship. She uses a hybrid of The Gottman Method for Couples Therapy and Prepare and Enrich. These sessions last 60-minutes. Key areas addressed and discussed include: communication, managing conflict, partner style and habits, leisure activities, family and friends, financial issues, children and parenting, sexuality and affection, relationship roles, spiritual beliefs, dreams and creating a life together. If Dr. Bisignano believes you and your partner can benefit from additional therapy she will discuss this with you.

Dr. Bisignano will be available to meet with you 3-months post marriage, at 6-months, and the year mark. These sessions serve as an opportunity to talk about how marriage is shaping up for you in these early months and the first year. Dr. Bisignano will be able to help you explore what is going well and possibly where you can grow and use some additional guidance from a licensed psychologist.

This premarital strategy is ideal and beneficial for any new couple getting ready to embark on one of the most important journeys of their lives. With the divorce rate in California as high as it is, upward of 50% by some statistics, it is vital that you start your marriage off with all the advantage you can.
