Building a strong and lasting relationship requires effort and commitment from both partners. Communication is key in any relationship, so make sure to always express your thoughts and feelings openly and honestly. Listen actively to your partner and try to understand their perspective.

Pre Marital Counseling

In America today, over 60% of marriages fail. They fail largely because of a lack of quality communication. It is becoming increasingly rare for couples to have a quality example of a healthy marriage. Dani and I would love to help your marriage get off to a great start, by helping you think about and discuss some of the common problems that occur within marriages.

Dani and I have been trained by Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott. They created a program called SYMBIS (Saving your marriage before it starts) designed to help prepare couples for a future life together. The process starts with an assessment of what you and your partner are bringing into the marriage. With this information, we are able to create a discussion plan that will enlighten you to both the strengths of your relationship as well as the areas that need to be discussed or improved.

We at Forever and Always, are trained to walk you through this process and help you learn to discuss various subjects like marital expectations, financial planning, and conflict management. We can give you the tools that can help your marriage last Forever and Always.

Marital Counseling

Your marriage might be in trouble, but it is most likely fixable. Most marriages start with very little understanding of how to make it work well. Couples have an improper understanding of the importance of communication or how to have quality discussions. We at Forever and Always can help you with this.

We have been trained by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, who have started the Gottman Institute. Their marriage counseling techniques are based on over 60 years of research and experience. Through their research, they have discovered the typical flaws that cause marriages to fail. With these in mind, they began developing a highly researched method that guides couples in how to communicate in a way that improves their chance of being truly heard.

Forever and Always.

Dani and I believe in the importance of marriage. A proper marriage is the foundation of stable families and communities. Divorce causes turmoil not only within the immediate family but also in the community which can last for several generations. We both have seen friends and family go through a divorce. We have felt the pain and struggles that follow.

Why We Do What We Do?

When we got married, we wanted to do it right. We started studying how to have a marriage that lasts. We were referred to SYMBIS and The Gottman Institute by a trained psychologist.

We learned the material to help our marriage and then determined that we could use the knowledge we gained to help others as well. We have decided to make it our mission to help others achieve quality, long-lasting marriages.

We seek to use our training and the example of our marriage as a light of hope for other couples around us.

About Us

We met in her home country of Brazil, then spent the next three years in a long-distance relationship as I traveled home to the US and then to Kazakhstan. I proposed about a month after we were reunited in Brazil. Our wedding had to be postponed a couple of times as we waited two and a half years for Dani’s visa to be approved.
