The Strongest Relationships Are Built on Honest Conversations.

You want to understand your partner more deeply. You want to talk through the things that matter before they become problems. Or maybe you simply want to slow down and reconnect, intentionally and honestly, with the person you love. Prepare and Enrich is a research-based couples assessment that gives you the structure, language, and support to do just that.

Offered by Marissa Massimini, LMFT

At Integrative Couples Therapy, this service is offered exclusively by Marissa Massimini, LMFT. Marissa uses Prepare and Enrich to help couples explore their relationship in a grounded, meaningful way. Whether you are dating, engaged, or have been together for years, this process can give you new insight and a clear path forward together.

What to Expect

Prepare and Enrich is not a test. It is a structured tool that highlights your relationship strengths and brings awareness to areas that might need more attention or support. It covers everything from communication and conflict to intimacy, family dynamics, money, roles, and core values. Once you complete the online assessment, Marissa will guide you through the results—helping you make sense of what they mean and how to use them. You will not just learn more about each other; you will also practice the skills needed to grow, together.

What You Will Gain

You will leave with a shared understanding of your strengths as a couple, awareness of patterns that may be creating stress or distance, insight into your communication and conflict styles, clarity around personal and family history and how it shapes your dynamic, a deeper sense of connection and empathy toward one another, and tools to support your relationship through future transitions and challenges.

Who This Is For

Prepare and Enrich is designed for all couples who want to strengthen their relationship. It is a valuable process if you are preparing for marriage or newly married, offering a structured way to build a strong foundation from the start. It is equally meaningful for couples who have been together for years and want to reset, reconnect, and bring fresh awareness to their partnership.

The assessment gives you the clarity and framework to talk openly about communication, intimacy, conflict, family, money, roles, and values. Instead of leaving these conversations to chance, you will be guided with intention, so that your relationship can grow on solid ground. Whether you are just beginning your life together or have been sharing it for decades, Prepare and Enrich helps you pause, reflect, and move forward with deeper understanding and a renewed sense of connection.

Marissa’s Approach

Marissa brings a warm, grounded presence to this work. She combines structured feedback with relational insight, using the assessment as a jumping-off point for deeper connection. As a therapist trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, she helps couples move beyond surface-level conversations into the real emotional work of partnership. You will feel supported, respected, and guided. This process is flexible. You can complete the assessment and review in just a few sessions, or continue into deeper couples work if you decide you would like more ongoing support.
