My partner and I have been together for 7.5 years. We went through our late teenage years together and have gone through a lot of growth as people.

Through this time we have had a LOT of great conversations around values, life goals, interests, family, and so forth. I have a B.S. in psychology and was on the therapist career track myself at one point, so I thought we'd covered all the topics there are to cover before heading towards marriage.

This course proved me wrong. From the first module, my partner and I discovered interesting new points to discuss. We've had meaningful and insightful conversations as a result, and this has had a positive impact on our relationship.

I believe that any couples who are in it for the long term, married or not, can benefit from this program. Perhaps the most benefit is derived by those who don't find it easy to organically discuss "big life things," but as we found, there's a lot to be gained here even by those who think they've gone through the gamut.

Otherwise, communication with the program coordinator was always prompt, the modules are well-designed, the activities aren't very time consuming, and it's great to have the flexibility to move through the course at your own pace. I would recommend allotting specific time each week to make it through at least a set portion of each module, as discussions may take a while. We struggled with this due to busy schedules, but even in that case we found it easy to copy down a few questions (they're all written out in the course) and cover them during random intervals of free time.

The price is also less than what 2-3 live therapy sessions cost in our area. When I think about how much money it might cost to get divorced, this expenditure is quite reasonable.

Overall, I would highly recommend this program.
