Marriage Coaching in Celina, Texas
Dick and Barb Ivey live just outside Celina, so for couples here we are not a regional service that drives in from somewhere else — we are neighbors. We coach Celina couples in person at a private location we arrange nearby, or by video from your own living room.
Coaching From People Who Live Here
Celina has changed fast. What was a quiet farm town at the north end of Collin County is now one of the fastest-growing places in North Texas, and many of the couples moving in arrived from somewhere else, a long way from parents, old friends and the church that married them. That is a lot of change to absorb at once, and marriages feel it first. We see the same streets, the same construction and the same growing pains you do, which makes it easier to talk plainly about what your week actually looks like.
What We Help Celina Couples With
- Getting ready for marriage — premarital coaching for engaged couples, with a completion letter for your officiant
- Settling in after a move — protecting the marriage while you build a new life, new friendships and a new church home
- Drifting apart — couples who are busy and polite but no longer close
- Rebuilding after a breach of trust, an affair, or a long season of hurt
- Remarriage and step-family life — something we have lived ourselves since 1988
How Coaching Works With Us
Every engagement starts with a free 30-minute conversation. If coaching is a fit, we agree a plan together: how many sessions, in person or online, and what you want to be different when you finish. The work follows our Educate, Coach, Mentor framework — you learn the skills, practice them with us, and then keep a lighter mentoring connection while the new habits settle in. Our coaching is Christian and scripture-grounded throughout, and we are open with you about when a licensed therapist would serve you better.
Nearby Communities
Because Celina is home, it is also the easiest place for us to meet in person. We also coach couples from Prosper, Frisco, Little Elm, Anna, Pilot Point, Gunter and the rest of north Collin and Denton counties, and couples anywhere else by video.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Do you have an office in Celina?
- No public office. We live near Celina and meet couples in person at a private location arranged at the start of the engagement, or by video. Some couples like to mix the two — an in-person first session, then video once the schedule gets busy.
- Why choose a coach who lives in Celina?
- Because the life you are describing is the one we see every day: the growth, the commutes, the new neighborhoods, the distance from family. You do not have to explain the backdrop before you can talk about the marriage.
- Do you only work with couples in Celina?
- No. Celina is home, so in-person sessions are easiest here and in nearby towns, but we coach couples across North Texas and throughout the U.S. by video.
- Is your coaching Christian?
- Yes. It is grounded in scripture and a Christian view of marriage. You do not need to belong to a particular church; our approach respects the variety of denominations across North Texas.
