A recent survey shows that our state, Kerala, ranks first in the number of cases filed for divorce or other matters that force couples to seek legal redress at the Family Court. Many other couples constitute another category that, for fear of disgrace it will bring to their family, is reluctant to move legally for solving connubial problems which undermine peaceful coexistence and gradually force them to live separated. But in most of the cases, it is seen, the reasons that prompt the them to resort to such steps are either baseless or easily solvable at the beginning itself. It so happens when both the members stick to their own pre-conceived notions and beliefs about connubiality and also their respective roles rather than living in an atmosphere of mutual understanding and acceptance, accommodating one’s likes and dislikes to the other’s.

Sex and parenting are other two significant areas where couples need proper guidance and knowledge for healthy practices. Misconceptions and wrong notions, in this regard, presently rule the roost, weakening the prospects of peaceful family life and proper upbringing of children. Our Pre-marital Counseling team, consisting of psychologists/sexologists, psychiatrists and educational experts serves to provide proper guidance and knowledge as needed by the couples to lead a happy family life, giving good upbringing to their wards.
