Grace + Truth

SYMBIS • Assessments + Sessions

Overview

Our approach to counseling involves a balance of grace and truth. We strive to provide a safe, supportive, nurturing environment while coming alongside and challenging the hurting to learn, grow, and overcome obstacles. Our mission is the whole person renewed and transformed—spirit, soul and body.

Premarital Counseling

The goal of our premarital counseling is to make sure you and the person you intend to spend the rest of your life with are aligned in key areas in your relationship, your desires, and your faith.

Couples take the SYMBIS Premarital Assessment. The test is electronically sent to each person. Once completed it is returned to the Counseling Center.

We then schedule 6 counseling sessions to review the responses and discuss the test together.
