The Counter Culture Marriage 

Helping Couples Reconnect, Rebuild, and Rekindle — God's Way.

We believe marriage is designed by God to be a safe place of deep connection, love, and Shared purpose.


Our mission is to help couples move from surviving as roommates to thriving as true partners — strengthening their marriages not just for themselves, but for the legacy they are building for their children.

Where it Started....

Five years into our marriage, we welcomed our first baby — and everything changed.

We loved each other, but the connection we once shared felt distant. Conversations turned into misunderstandings. We found ourselves walking on eggshells, unsure how to communicate what we were feeling without making things worse.
We didn’t want to stay stuck. We both knew God had more for our marriage.

So, we asked for help.

Through just a few sessions of marriage coaching with our pastor, God opened our eyes. We uncovered the root issues that were keeping us apart — and when the walls of resentment came down, real healing and closeness began.

What We Discovered

That experience ignited something in us.
We realized that disconnection after children isn’t rare — and that it is repairable!

We dove deep into learning about God's design for marriage, the psychological and emotional differences between men and women, and what truly builds lasting, joyful connection.

One of the most life-changing shifts for us was learning how to truly communicate — to listen without defensiveness, to speak without blame, and to work through conflict with grace, humility, and teamwork.
These new skills didn’t just solve our problems — they created a marriage that felt safe, supportive, and strong again.

How We Can Help You

Today, as Certified Christian Marriage Coaches, our passion is to come alongside couples just like you — who love each other but feel stuck.

Through our coaching, resources, and biblically-grounded guidance, we help couples move from frustration and loneliness to connection, understanding, and teamwork.

We’ll help you not only rebuild emotional and physical intimacy, but also equip you with practical tools to communicate better, resolve conflict peacefully, and grow stronger together — even in the busy, beautiful chaos of raising a family.

You don’t have to settle for living like roommates.
With the right tools, perspective, and encouragement, your marriage can become the vibrant, life-giving relationship you both long for.

We’re living proof — and we’d be honored to help you write the next chapter of your story.

Why We do what We do

We know what it feels like to be deeply in love — and still feel deeply disconnected.
We know the heartbreak of trying to reach for each other and missing.

And we know the hope that comes from realizing it doesn’t have to stay that way.

Helping couples isn’t just a job for us — it’s a calling.
We believe marriage is one of God's most beautiful gifts, and we’re passionate about helping couples experience the joy, safety, and purpose He designed it to bring.

We do this work because we want to see families strengthened.
We want children to grow up in homes where love, forgiveness, laughter, and grace are modeled daily.
We want husbands who feel valued and supported, and wives who feel loved and cherished — two people working together as a true team.

When a marriage is restored, it ripples outward — into the hearts of children, into the church, into the community, and into future generations.

That’s why we show up — for the couple feeling overwhelmed, for the husband carrying silent burdens, for the wife longing to feel close again, and for every family that deserves a strong, healthy foundation to build their life on.

This isn’t just about saving marriages — it’s about building legacies.

Our Proven System

We’ve developed a simple, powerful coaching framework based on Biblical truth, real-life experience, and proven communication and relationship tools.
It’s designed to help couples move from disconnected and frustrated... to deeply connected and truly united — even in the busy, messy seasons of life.

Our proven system

Our system is for you if:

You still love each other and want to stay together — you just feel stuck or distant
You’re willing to work on yourself, not just your spouse
You're tired of walking on eggshells and want honest, loving communication
You’re willing to learn new tools and show up with humility and grace
You believe God has a purpose for your marriage and want to align with His design

Our system is NOT for you if:

You (or your spouse) have already mentally/emotionally "checked out" and aren’t willing to try
You’re only interested in changing your spouse, not yourself
You’re unwilling to forgive or move past old wounds
You’re looking for traditional counseling for crisis situations like abuse, addiction, or infidelity (we can refer you to deeper support for those needs).

Not sure?

How about a free consultation?

We know investing in your marriage is a big decision — and you want to feel confident you're choosing the right support.

That's why we offer a free 20-minute consultation call.
No pressure. No sales pitch. Just a real conversation about where you are, where you want to be, and how we might be able to help.

If we’re a good fit, we’ll talk about next steps.
If not, you’ll still leave encouraged with a little more clarity for your journey forward.

Everyone needs a couple like Sheldon and Lea on their team. They have a gift for asking the right questions — the ones that spark conversations you wouldn't normally have — and creating space for real healing to happen.
