Resources for Married Couples

Marriage Coaching at IHM Parish

Picture
Getting married is easy. Staying happily married requires some effort and  skill. There are some teachable things that successful married couples do to sustain happiness over a lifetime. You and your spouse can learn these skills through marriage coaching sessions. If you are experiencing consistent challenges in your marriage, coaching could be exactly what you need. If your marriage is fine, but you know it could be better, coaching can help with that too. Marriage coaching has even been a key part of re-energizing marriages that are on the brink of divorce.

IHM Parish offers confidential and affordable marriage coaching services to parishioners. Here's how it works:
  • Contact Jim Merhaut by phone (330-261-1630) or by email (jim@coachingtoconnect.com) to inquire about relationship coaching for you and your spouse. Identify yourself as a parishioner of IHM to receive the reduced rate.
  • Your meetings will be scheduled with consideration of your availability.
  • For couples wanting additional anonymity, all coaching can be done by phone.
  • Most couples complete the process after 5-10 meetings. Each meeting is about 1 hour long.
Contact us today and learn the skills to get your marriage moving in a better direction!
