The Couple Checkup is designed to help you and your
partner build a more satisfying and intimate relationship. Just answering
the questions will stimulate thoughts and attitudes about your relationship.
It is designed to activate dialogue, discovery, and increase the overall
quality of your relationship.
It will help you discover your strengths as a couple. Strengths are what enable you to
enjoy, and to continue developing a healthy relationship. It will also help
you identify issues that are threatening the vitality of your relationship
and may need to be addressed.
