Couples

Don provides counseling for hurting couples, for pre-marital preparation, and also does relationship assessments to determine “next steps” for couple growth. Sessions with Don will help you understand yourself and your partner, and to learn practical skills to build a growing, healthy relationship.

Individuals

If you’re not in a current relationship, or you have an unwilling partner, individual counseling can help you understand your strengths, your growth needs, and what you bring into your relationships. You’ll learn what you can do (on your own) to improve your existing or your next relationship.

Weddings

Beyond simply performing the wedding ceremony, Don provides preparation sessions beforehand, and follow-up sessions after the wedding to ensure you are supported not only on your special day, but well into your future. Don wants both your wedding day AND your marriage to be spectacular!

Testimonials

“We don’t think we can summarize in just 2 or 3 sentences the impact Don has made in our lives when he counseled us prior to our wedding. We learned many valuable lessons from his great depth of experience. We are committed and happy together, and we attribute that to how he has prepared us for marriage. We appreciate and thank Don for what he has done in our lives.”

– Khai & Holly

“My husband and I met with Don when we were having a difficult time communicating through a tough situation. Don walked us through and gave us ways to see each other’s perspective and help us remove the roadblocks from hearing each other. We needed the reminder that our relationship was more important than just the tough situation we were facing.”

– Jennifer

“Other counselors or therapists are usually problem focused. Don is solution focused. If you want to actually make a change and improvement in your life without investing months, call Don Flecky. His wisdom and experience always cuts to the chase, the core issue, which he addresses gently but pointedly. I heartily recommend him.”

– Geoffrey Thompson

“Don has been incredibly encouraging and helpful as we met with him while transitioning to being “empty nesters”. His warm encouragement and authenticity, along with his knowledge and comfort with marriage tools helped us redirect our marriage toward long term health. Highly recommend getting counsel from Don!”

“I have known Don Flecky for the last five years and I have attended several of his marriage and relationship workshops, including How We Love and the Third Option. Don is a dynamic leader with a cheerful and helpful personality. He exudes a spirit of wellbeing and confidence. Don epitomizes the qualities most highly sought in a model career counselor: expertise, faith-based insight, and skilled leadership principles and values.”

– WFM

“I have worked alongside Don for over 30 years. I have seen him turn an interest in helping folks into a passionate, well-trained calling! He has presented at professional conferences, on mission fields, in seminaries, and large international congregations, but what you will love most is his genuine love for you. He was born to be an unusually gifted helper!”

“Don is a lifeline. One of the most generous, godly men I’ve had the privilege to be near.”

– Jared

“Over a decade ago, we went through a difficult season in our marriage. Don compassionately guided and counseled us, and his gift of listening for accurate understanding has truly enhanced our marriage. We are forever grateful to God for Don’s wisdom to strengthen and heal marriages and relationships.”

– Doug & Jody Brown

“I would recommend Don for any type of couples’ counseling. We originally came for a relationship assessment, but our conversations went to many relationship items that went above and beyond typical premarital counseling. It was clear that Don took our sessions very seriously and always came prepared. He made us feel at home, and I would absolutely recommend him.”

– P. K.
