Designed by Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott, who have spent 25 years researching marriage, SYMBIS is used by counselors and churches worldwide. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: 100%;\">With the help of a certified SYMBIS facilitator, couples take an assessment, and then walk through their assessment results and SYMBIS materials with their facilitator to help them apply what they learn and enjoy intimate discussions along the way.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: 100%;\">This fee for SYMBIS is $60, which will cover the SYMBIS assessment, the SYMBIS book, and a separate workbook for each individual.&nbsp;After completing the form, couples can expect to be contacted by their counseling facilitator, who will help you get started with the SYMBIS assessment. From there, you will be able to schedule and plan counseling meetings together.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-1384738397 {\n  color: rgb(0,0,0);\n}\n#text-1384738397 > * {\n  color: rgb(0,0,0);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<div class=\"message-box relative dark\" style=\"padding-top:15px;padding-bottom:15px;\"><div class=\"message-box-bg-image bg-fill fill\" ><\/div><div class=\"message-box-bg-overlay bg-fill fill\" style=\"background-color:#ef4c4f;\"><\/div><div class=\"container relative\"><div class=\"inner last-reset\">\n\n<div class=\"row align-middle align-center\"  id=\"row-1195648687\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-364700254\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-7\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t<div id=\"text-801818266\" class=\"text\">\n\t\t\n\n<h3>Make your marriage everything it is meant to be!&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-801818266 {\n  text-align: center;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1195956251\" class=\"col medium-5 small-12 large-4\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/my.lcc.org\/registration?registrationinstanceid=537\" class=\"button white\" style=\"border-radius:99px;\">\n\t\t<span>register for symbis<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":45453,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-45450","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
