FAQ

Will we have to share our personal problems and issues with the class? No. The class does not include sharing problems and issues publicly. Couple's exercises are done privately.    


Must both partners attend or can I come alone? Since the class involves doing exercises together, it is recommended both partners participate to get the most out of this workshop.    


My partner isn't a reader. Can we still come to the class if he/she won't read the book? Yes, still come to class. While the book provides valuable information, the class lectures will summarise the content of the book. Each person will need the couples workbook however, to do the couple's exercises efficiently.   


Is this workshop equivalent to therapy or counselling? No! This workshop is psycho-educational and aimed to build skills and knowledge. It is not a replacement for therapy or marriage counselling.    


Where is the workshop held? We will be running the Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work workshop in Sydney, NSW, Australia a few times a year.
