MARRIAGE THERAPY FOR CHRISTIAN COUPLES
Build the Relationship Your Hearts Desire
Being a Christian doesn’t make us any of us immune to relationship struggles. It’s simply part of our human condition and the reality of living in a broken world. But with struggle comes the opportunity for growth. We look at a difficult time in your marriage as a chance to help you find a healthier way to relate with each other and to build the loving, committed relationship you desire.
Our Training – We are a team of highly skilled therapists with decades of experience not only in couples therapy but also trauma, addiction and other specific therapies such as ART & EMDR.
Your Patterns – It’s a real world challenge to avoid the dysfunctional patterns that become stumbling blocks to the loving, committed marriage your desire. You will learn to recognize the harmful patterns causing stress and conflict in your relationship and more importantly, how to change them.
Your Choice – You can choose to meet with your pro-marriage therapist in-person or virtually, or both. We have offices in Richardson and Frisco, TX and offer online sessions from anywhere.
Create a new vision for your marriage.
We offer Christian Counseling to the communities of Richardson, Frisco, Plano, Dallas, Garland, Allen, McKinney, Wylie, Sachse, Lucas, Melissa, The Colony, Addison, Lewisville, Prosper, Celina, Rowlett and surrounding areas of Texas. Not in Texas? Our Certified Relationship Coaches work with clients across the U.S., Canada, and beyond.

A MESSAGE FROM KIM BOWEN, LPC-S
OWNER/FOUNDER, THE MARRIAGE PLACE
One of the questions I am routinely asked is if we offer Christian Counseling. It’s a great question and one that I always answer with more than a simple ‘yes’. After all, the phrase “Christian Counseling” can mean so many different things depending on who you ask.
I believe you should know what to expect when you decide to entrust us to help you with your most important earthly relationship. One thing we are not is the Christian counselor who is just going to tell you to have more sex, go on regular dates nights and stay in scripture. While each of those can be great (really great!) for your marriage, we believe you need more to create and maintain a healthy marriage.
Marriage is a risky business for anyone, and all too often couples call it quits way too early and for very little reason other than they feel dissatisfied and lose hope of ever feeling any differently.
At The Marriage Place you can expect sound, science-based, research-proven therapy delivered by a qualified therapist. Our personal faith fuels our passion for this work; however we serve a very faith-diverse clientele and believe it is our client who should always determine what role, if any, faith plays in their therapy experience. For our Christian clients who wish to incorporate faith as part of our innovative approach to couples therapy, we welcome that opportunity! Let us know your preference at the time of booking so that we can get you matched with one of our Christian therapists who offer this service.
Our vision is to help you realize it is a lot easier to work on the marriage you have than it is to get out and start over alone or with someone new. We believe most marriages can be saved if you are willing to put in the work, and we can show you how.
Kim

DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?
If you are unsure if you have out-of-network benefits or wish to confirm if our services are eligible for reimbursement under your plan, we recommend you contact your insurance company. Ask if your plan offers mental health benefits including counseling, and if so, what services are covered, at what reimbursement rate and whether you need to first meet a deductible.
If you plan to file with your insurance, please let us know. If you have an FSA or HSA card, we are also happy to accept it for payment.
