Sissy and Doug were amazing! We enjoyed doing SYMBIS with their help and learned a lot through our couples sessions with them. They are very passionate about what they do and make sure to make the experience amazing regardless of religious background or beliefs. We feel more ready and prepared for marriage than ever!

Doug and Sissy were incredibly helpful to us. We took their premarital counseling sessions back in 2019/2020, and it really helped start our marriage prepared for the challenges.  We enjoyed them so much that we went back and took the book camp as well, after we were already married. I wish they offered more events for married people so that we could continue learning from them. They truly care about what they do and we hold a special place in our hearts for them, even now being married almost 4 years.

We are so grateful for this ministry! We did SYMBIS as our pre martial counseling and it was really great for us to learn each other and understand more on how to take a Bible-based approach to conflicts in marriage. Especially after we got married and started living together, we truly saw the importance of the SYMBIS tips and tricks we learned, that we didn't realize we would go through.

So blessed by Doug & Sissy and their wise, Godly guidance! May God continue to use their ministry for so many other couples like us!

I cannot say enough positive things about Doug and Sissy, we thoroughly enjoyed our coaching sessions and SYMBIS is a great way for couples to discuss matters that are really important. It is a great way to talk about the things that are all too often "unspoken" even with the greatest of couples. This course gave us a way to make sense of our thoughts, in an easy non-judgmental and open way. It wasn't that we hadn't voiced these ideas or matters, just that we hadn't thought about the matters fully. That is what SYMBIS is for: discussing. One of the greatest parts of this is discussing your relationship in depth and recognizing how to best communicate with your partner based on their personality and yours.

My partner and I had already discussed several of the matters we discussed in SYMBIS (and thought we had done so successfully), just not as successfully as we thought! Doug and Sissy really helped us understand each other and our perspectives. They set us up with great tools and are very much in your corner!

We had a great time with Sissy and Doug. They were kind, patient with us, they knew how to guide us through understanding ourselves and each other better, without ever pushing us too far. We wished we could have met in a more private place and we would do it again all the time :-) Definitely an amazing experience!

We attended a BootCamp with Sissy and Doug, and at the end of the day we felt so encouraged and supported in our relationship. We felt like even topics we had already talked about as a couple had been expanded and given new ideas and approaches after the BootCamp. Sissy and Doug were thorough in not only their research, but also the use of scripture, which really meant a lot to us. They both took time to listen to things we wanted to work on as a couple, and related it to the scriptures and the research they brought to the table. Overall a really wonderful experience and we cannot recommend them enough. They will be the first couple we point engaged couples to for premarital counseling!

If you're engaged or shoot even if you are already married you should come do this BootCamp. They are honestly wonderful people who share Gods plan and intention of marriage and tools that will help set a great foundation for marriage. We feel so much more prepared and excited to get married even after having the hard and uncomfortable conversations that they brought to light for us.

We 100% recommend anyone who is getting married or is already married. It was such a great experience for both of us to be there and hear every way we can help our marriage be stronger and how to overcome certain obstacles. Learning to open our hearts to a wonderful marriage for not only us, our daughter and future children but most importantly. the marriage God wants us to have!

This was such an enlightening and fun experience. This experience really highlighted where we are as individuals and how we can transition into being one. I loved how accurate the SYMBIS results were and how I was able to learn more about my partner and myself. I would advise anyone to invest in their relationship and counsel with the Pitcher's! I am so glad we did.
