Meet Our Coaches

what Past couples are saying….

We decided to try a marriage coaching session with Jane. After one session we saw the benefits, and signed up for four more. Jane covered some serious topics with us, many of which we wouldn’t have discussed in great detail otherwise. She created a comfortable atmosphere for both of us, and an environment where we could talk about anything. Our relationship with Jane has been incredibly special.  I think a lot of people overlook the marriage coaching but it equipped us with some essential skills we will be using for many years to come. Thank you, Jane! You have our highest recommendations!

- Mike & Mackenzie

Premarital coaching was one of the most valuable investments we gifted ourselves ahead of our wedding day. We had been together for many years already and although our core values aligned, we wanted to make sure that we added more tools in our belts to equip us for the road ahead. Working through tough topics such as family dynamics, finances and conflict communication was extremely helpful. It was easier than we had anticipated because we were in the presence of someone who was able to offer an unbiased perspective. We continue to recommend premarital coaching to our friends planning marriage. 

- Jenny & Mike

When you're engaged and planning a wedding, it can be hard to think past wedding colors and seating arrangements, but I wanted to invest in the marriage not just the wedding. Jane helped my fiancé and I do just that in an approachable way. From practical money matters to communication tools to larger hopes and dreams we have as we enter the marriage, Jane's accompanying presence helped my fiancé and I to gain more clarity and specificity as we approached our wedding day. If you are engaged or dating and considering marriage, I would highly recommend working with Jane.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

But we never fight. Do we still need coaching?

All couples should engage in healthy conflict in their relationship - so never fighting might not be the best thing. That’s where coaching comes in. Learning how to fight well when you are NOT actually in a conflict is incredibly valuable.

We’re SO busy! How long does coaching take?

We get it. Wedding planning can become all consuming. But coaching only takes a few hours (each session is one hour) and is done via video chat from the comfort of your home. We’ll set you up with some helpful and fun exercises to do between coaching calls to give you a break from wedding planning. Imagine how great it would be to focus on your fiancé and not the guest list for a few minutes!

Is this a religious thing?

Good question! Many pre-marital coaching programs are faith-based. At Thrive, we will only incorporate religious discussions if you are interested or would find value in them. Our coaches come from a variety of backgrounds but our main concern, in terms of spirituality and religion, is that you and your partner know and respect each other’s beliefs.

WHO DO YOU WORK WITH?

We work with newly or nearly engaged couples looking to set their marriage up for success. We are excited to work with interfaith couples, intercultural couples, and LGBTQ+ couples, and will focus on these aspects of your relationship as much or as little as you see fit. Because we do all our coaching via online video, we can work with couples all over the world!

Coaching is too expensive! can we afford it?

We know coaching is an investment but what better thing to spend your money on than building a fantastic foundation for your marriage? We offer gift cards for our coaching packages - which you can add to you wedding registry! Feel free to ask about our payment plans as well.

Is this the same as counseling?

No, in coaching we work with healthy couples to build foundational skills, like communication and conflict resolution. We help you develop tools you can use to prevent future conflicts or manage tension in a way that feels respectful and loving. Counseling is suited more for couples in a crisis or needing help working through a specific problem. If you or your coach ever feel like you might be better suited to see a counselor, we are happy to refer you to some of our amazing colleagues.

do we have to be engaged to do this?

Nope! Premarital coaching is great for couples seriously dating, engaged or newly married. If you’re committed to one another for the long term, coaching is a great way to set your relationship up for success.

Do we have to start coaching before our wedding?

Not necessarily. Couples often start coaching before their wedding and finish it afterwards. Or you are welcome to start once you’ve returned from your honeymoon or unwrapped all your presents. We are here whenever you are ready!

We’re IN!
