Relationship Assessments for Couples: Prepare-Enrich & SYMBIS
Personalized insight meets proven tools. Seamlessly woven into our Relationship Programs for couples, evidence-based assessments help couples strengthen communication, deepen understanding, and build a lasting connection—making them an essential part of our Premarital Counseling and Marriage Coaching.
Why We Use Relationship Assessments
Every couple has unique strengths—and blind spots. Relationship assessments like Prepare-Enrich and SYMBIS help uncover those dynamics early, providing a roadmap for growth, teamwork, and long-term success of your relationship.
At Loran Coaching, we’re certified facilitators in both tools and tailor your experience to fit your relationship stage—whether you’re dating, engaged, newly married, or refining a seasoned partnership. Each assessment helps you communicate more clearly and understand each other on a deeper level.
What the Assessments Cover
Both Prepare-Enrich and SYMBIS explore the key dimensions that shape thriving relationships:
Communication & conflict resolution
Finances & money habits
Roles, responsibilities & expectations
Family background & values
Affection & intimacy
Shared goals & meaning
After completing your online assessment, we walk through the results together in session—translating data into real, applicable insights for your daily life.

What to Expect
Here’s how the process works:
We choose the right assessment based on your relationship stage, goals, and Loran Coaching program selected.
Each partner completes the online questionnaire privately (about 30–45 minutes).
We review your results together during your sessions with us, applying them to real-life situations.
You leave with personalized insights, tools, and next steps to keep your relationship growing strong.
Why It Matters
These assessments aren’t compatibility tests to see if you’re right for each other, and they aren’t about judgment—they’re about awareness and entering marriage with your eyes wide-open. Understanding your relationship patterns now gives you the power to communicate effectively, manage conflict gracefully, and nurture a healthy, lasting marriage built on trust and intentionality.
Ready to Begin?
Whether we use Prepare-Enrich or SYMBIS, our goal is the same: to help you feel confident, connected, and ready for marriage.
