What Is SYMBIS?

SYMBIS stands for Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts. SYMBIS is a proven premarital program developed by Drs. Les & Leslie Parrott. It's more than just counseling, it’s a deep, customized assessment that explores key areas of your relationship including:

• Communication styles and conflict patterns

• Spiritual and emotional intimacy

• Money, expectations, and roles

• Family of origin and future planning

• Personality dynamics and compatibility

You’ll gain insight into your unique strengths and growth areas as a couple, while receiving faith centered, clinically informed guidance from a licensed counselor.
