Tim Jackson Counseling — Private Pay Therapist in East Nashville

Premarital Counseling

Start Strong. Stay That Way.

You've put a lot of thought into the wedding. Premarital counseling is for putting thought into the marriage — the day-to-day rhythms, the hard conversations, the moments when you'll need to know how to find each other again.

This isn't a checklist or a compatibility test. It's a real look at who you each are, what you're each bringing with you, and how to build something that can actually hold you — through the beautiful parts and the hard ones.

Premarital counseling is private pay.

​

What We'll Explore Together

• Money & What It Means — how you each think about finances, what it brings up, and how to navigate it as a team.

• Family Patterns & Traditions — what you're bringing from the families you grew up in, what you want to carry forward together.

• Navigating Conflict — not avoiding disagreement, but learning how to move through it without losing each other.

• Emotional & Physical Intimacy — how you stay close, what gets in the way, and how to keep finding each other.

• Future & Family — children, blended families, big life milestones, and how to face them together.

​

Why Choose Premarital Counseling?

Couples who invest in premarital counseling tend to report stronger communication, deeper trust, and greater confidence going into marriage. The research backs that up — and so does the lived experience of sitting with couples who've done this work. The ones who come in curious and open tend to leave with something real.

​

Investing in Your Marriage

Premarital counseling is one of the most intentional investments you can make before your wedding day.

 

Here's how we can work together:

Weekly Sessions — $175 per session. We meet regularly over several weeks, working through each topic at a pace that fits you.

One-Day Intensive — $900. A focused, full-day experience for couples who want to do the work in a concentrated format — ideal if your schedule is tight or your wedding is approaching.

 

Both options are private pay. Learn more about what that means and why. Upon completion, you'll receive a notarized certificate of completion for your Tennessee marriage license application.

You don't have to have everything figured out before you reach out. Most couples don't. That's actually why you come.
