Whether you are preparing for marriage, navigating a new chapter, or hoping to feel closer after years together, making time for your relationship matters. You may want to improve communication, explore different expectations, or understand why the same disagreements keep returning.
At The Holistic Mental Health Clinic in St. Petersburg, FL, we use Prepare/Enrich to help couples recognize their strengths, understand their differences, and identify meaningful opportunities for growth.
Prepare/Enrich is a research-informed relationship assessment used with guidance from a trained facilitator. Each partner completes an online questionnaire independently, sharing their own perspective on the relationship.
The results provide a starting point for thoughtful conversations about what is working well and where additional support may help. Your therapist uses these insights to personalize your sessions around your relationship and goals.
Topics may include:
Prepare/Enrich gives you a structured opportunity to discuss subjects that may be difficult to bring up on your own. It can help you recognize different perspectives, clarify expectations, and build on the strengths you already share.
With your therapist’s guidance, you can practice expressing your needs, listening with greater understanding, and approaching disagreements more constructively. Exercises between sessions help you apply these skills to everyday conversations.
The program can support couples preparing for marriage, adjusting to married life, reconnecting in a long-term relationship, or navigating changes together.
We begin by discussing your concerns and what you would like to accomplish together. If Prepare/Enrich fits your needs, your therapist arranges the assessment and explains the next steps.
Each partner receives an individual email invitation and completes the questionnaire separately. Allow approximately 30 minutes per person, with time to answer thoughtfully and without distractions.
Your therapist then reviews the results with you, highlighting shared strengths and areas you may experience differently. Together, you identify priorities and practice skills suited to your goals. The number and frequency of sessions depend on your needs and individualized Plan of Care.
You do not have to wait for a crisis to invest in your connection. Prepare/Enrich offers an opportunity to better understand one another and approach your future with greater intention.
