Build Your Happier Marriage

Build Your Happier Marriage

A happy marriage is what every married couple wants. They want to feel loved, supported, heard, respected, and desired. This does not mean a perfect marriage; a marriage that doesn't have problems. No! But it's one where you feel safe, secure, and satisfied. Right? How to get there is the challenge. And this is where I, Kingsley Grant, come in. I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Relationship Coach, and Communication Expert, and has been married for almost four decades. I believe a happier marriage results from you and your spouse committing to creating an emotionally safe space as the starting point and then building toward a happier marriage. This happier marriage is possible using a scientific and Christian-based healing approach. This may involve marriage counseling, coaching, or live or virtual conferences. The ultimate goal is to Make Marriages Happier Again. Let's eradicate unhappiness from marriages globally!
