Hi Reader

If it would serve you, I have availability this month for a few Marriage Check-Ups.

🏠 What a Marriage Check-Up offers:

A Marriage Check-Up is kind of like an annual physical: an opportunity to move beyond all the random relationship advice and examine your actual marriage so you can: name what’s strong, notice what’s strained, and discern what’s needed next before heading into the summer.

Grounded in the Gottman model, we’ll unpack a comprehensive snapshot of:

1. What is good, working well, and needs to be safeguarded?
   • Y'all probably have a lot good that you might not be aware of.
2. Where are you not seeing eye-to-eye?
   • Y'all likely have 3-5 areas where you see things differently. This is important to acknowledge because it is the source of unresolvable conflict. The key to moving out of gridlock is changing how you relate to what you cannot change in these areas.
3. Where are your relationship accounts overdrawn?
   • Y'all probably have a few areas where your relationship feels overdrawn and you need to be intentional about the small regular deposits that accumulate.
4. What is needed for this next season?
   • You've been through a lot of life together. What worked well before doesn't work as well now. A few new tools could make all the difference in the year ahead.

✅ How it works

1. Choose a time and confirm availability
2. ​Complete the intake process + relationship assessment.
3. Receive a personalized report
4. We'll meet in my office or over zoom to review and plan next steps.

💝 Costs & Scholarship Assistance

With Expectant Hope,

Geoff Whiteman, ThM, LMFT “Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” (Ephesians 3:14-21) Could I help your community?

P.S. Thanks in advance for forwarding this email to a few couples who might be interested.

Could this help? By repeating a short prayer like: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner" with each knot, a Prayer Rope helps us to pause and ponder in the midst of whatever is happening. As our body, mind, and heart become still we can: "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you" (1 Thessalonians 5:17).
