Strengthening Your Marriage

Perhaps more challenging than marrying the person you love is to love the person you marry. Building a happy and fulfilling married life demands time, effort and commitment.

TOUCH Marriage Support provides the following programmes that help couples lay a strong foundation for a life-long marriage:

Marriage Check-In

Over time, couples tend to lose the ability or desire to talk about or enrich their relationship when they get overwhelmed by responsibilities related to parenting, career, family, health and life transitions, impacting the vibrancy of their marital relationship.

That is why every marriage will benefit from a periodic check-in.

We offer a Marriage Check-In using the evidence-based PREPARE ENRICH Relationship Assessment inventory to reignite companionship, romance, and commitment in your relationship with a group workshop for an overview and understanding of the PE Assessment.

During the workshop, our trained facilitators will help to:

  • Learn about your relationship strengths;
  • Have a better understanding of your relationship dynamics;
  • Have better clarity of each other's personality through the SCOPE personality scales;
  • Gain understanding of flexibility and connections of the Family & Couple Maps.

Who should attend?

Married couples with the first check-in before the fifth year of marriage and subsequently, at various life stage changes (e.g. becoming new parents).

Remarriage Enrichment Programme

Getting married or getting remarried can be both an intimidating and exciting new chapter in your life. It is a decision that requires thought and consideration. Nonetheless, remarriages can be successful if couples have an understanding of what this may bring. This is also an enrichment programme for couples who are remarried.

The purpose of the program is support and help couples under the dynamics of a remarriage through the PREPARE/ENRICH relationship assessment, a relationship inventory that provides a personalized snapshot of your relationship with objective results to give clearer understanding of yourselves and your relationship.

The programme will help couples to:

1. Identify their relationship strengths
2. Provide a better understanding of the underlying dynamics impacting their communication
3. Address issues that may arise in remarriage
4. Develop skills to improve their growth areas
5. Understand and work on how to address issues in remarriages such as parenting and step-parenting and finance

  • Couples who plan to remarry or are remarried
