ABOUT US
We help couples enjoy married life again.
Our marriage counseling resources put the power of in-office couples therapy in your hands, right at home.
We're on a mission
to save more marriages.
Too many marriages end — not because they are destined to fail but because couples don't have the resources they need to build and nurture their relationship. The good news is that there are simple practices you can do to reinforce your connection and strengthen your bond. Even better, they're backed by scientific research and countless personal success stories.
forBetter puts these tools in your hands as easily and accessibly as possible so you can save, strengthen, and safegaurd your marriage.

MEET CHARLES & SUSIE
Marriages in the U.S. are ending earlier than ever. And a staggering 70% of those couples end their relationship without seeking any professional help.
These statistics break our hearts because that was almost us.
We joyfully tied the knot in 1974. But like so many young couples, the first six years of our marriage were pretty much a train wreck. Right when we were ready to end it and move on, a friend helped us consider a different path: What might the future look like if I made a renewed commitment to my marriage vs. walking away?
That moment changed everything. Over forty years later, we're stronger and happier than ever — all thanks to learning practices that helped us communicate better, connect better, and love better. We want the same for you.
We created forBetter to help couples like you not only save your marriage but savor it. Don't lose hope. Take the first step and honor your relationship today.
