The symbis Assessment
The SYMBIS Assessment (Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts) is a widely used, evidence-based pre-marital and marriage assessment created by psychologists Dr. Les and Leslie Parrott. It is designed to help couples uncover unique insights into their personalities, communication styles, and conflict triggers to build a stronger foundation.
-
The SYMBIS assessment creates a base of information that we can use to help coach you and your spouse. It provides deep psychological and practical insights, uncovering unique personality dynamics, communication styles, and conflict triggers to proactively prevent future or current marital friction.
-
We use the assessment as a tool to help couples better understand themselves and their spouse. The idea is to recognize the patterns you both bring into the marriage. The results will be discussed over the course of several weeks.
-
We will walk you through your assessment topic by topic and lean into the areas you take interest in and have questions about. We anticipate deep diving into some of the topics as we walk you through. For remaining weeks you’ll receive one-on-one couples coaching, addressing friction areas, methods for working through these areas, how to strengthen your marriage by keeping Christ at the center, and more. Every couple is unique and we care to take time understanding you both in order for you to better understand your marriage.
