Dr. Eyrich's book, Three To Get Ready, presents a practical methodology for conducting premarital counseling with couples engaged to be married. This consists of a seven-week session with various tests to be administered as well as homework assignments for the couple. The number of sessions and duration of each can, of course, be varied to fit the needs of the counselor/counselees. This will almost surely happen as specific issues are uncovered which require specific counseling to correct. Nevertheless, Dr. Eyrich presents a highly usable approach for premarital counseling which seems appropriate for those new to counseling as well as for experienced pastoral counselors.
