Getting engaged is the beginning.
This is how you build something that lasts.
Group therapy for engaged couples in Colorado who want to do the real work together, in community, before the wedding and marriage.
You're probably feeling pretty stoked. You're also probably carrying around some questions you haven't yet asked, some conversations you haven't yet had, and some stuff in your own past that no one ever told you would come to the relationship.
Rooted Together is where all that gets space. Small group. Real talk. Community of couples who get exactly where you are. They're there too.

A Note from Your Facilitator, Josie Ampaw!
I have been exactly where you are.
Almost four years ago, I had a large wedding. In all the excitement, planning and love, there were things I wish someone had created space for.
Conversations about what we were each carrying into that marriage. The histories. The family patterns. The expectations that neither of us had fully named yet.
Standard premarital counseling gave us this in limited ways, but we didn’t have other couples to talk to about this process in real time.
I spent years since then sitting with couples, brilliant, loving, committed couples, who walked into their marriages the same way.
Prepared for the wedding. Unprepared for everything that came after.
Every emotion you are feeling right now, the things you are afraid to say out loud; this group holds all of it. That is what I built this group for. I would be honored to sit with you in it.
Why a group? And why is it more than just a cheaper option?
Individual premarital therapy is valuable. We are not here to say otherwise. But a group gives you something that one-on-one work cannot and at a fraction of the price.
You get more depth. More access. Lower cost. Traditional premarital therapy runs $150-$200 per couple per session. Rooted Together is $50 per person, that is $100 per couple per week for a depth of work most individual therapy never reaches. This is not a compromise. It is a different and often richer opportunity.

You are not the only ones.
Something shifts when you are in a room with another couple and realize they are having the exact same conversation you have been having at home. The shame lifts. The isolation breaks. You stop wondering if something is wrong with you and start understanding what is genuinely normal about where you are.

Other couples are your greatest teacher.
Watching another couple work through something, how they listen, how they repair, how they hold each other, teaches you things about your own relationship that no therapist can tell you directly. The group is the curriculum.

Community is part of the healing.
Your relationship does not exist in a vacuum. It exists inside a community. Building your marriage inside a community of other couples who will know your story, hold your growth, and celebrate your wedding, that is one of the most powerful things you can do for your long-term relational health.
This group is not a good fit if you are…
You are in active relationship crisis. Individual couples therapy may be a better first step and we are happy to help you find the right fit if that is where you are.
You need a short-term program with a defined end date. Rooted Together is ongoing with rolling admission, most couples stay through engagement and early marriage, but there is no forced finish line.
One of you is not willing to engage. If one partner is reluctant, let us talk about it on the consultation call before you decide, it is more common than you think and often resolves itself once people are actually in the room.

Individual couples therapy is you, your partner, and a therapist. Rooted Together adds something individual therapy cannot; a community of other couples in the same season of life who become mirrors, teachers, and witnesses to your growth. It is not a cheaper substitute for individual therapy. It is a different and often more powerful experience.
-
More common than you think. Book the consultation anyway, with both of you if you can. The reluctant partner is often the one who gets the most out of couples therapy once they are actually in it. Let us talk about it before you decide reluctance is a reason not to try
-
Yes. Rooted Together is for couples who are in a committed relationship moving toward marriage. Formal engagement is not required. If you are seriously considering building a life together and you want to do that work intentionally, this group is for you.
-
There is no defined end date. Rooted Together has rolling admission and no forced finish line. Most couples stay through their engagement and early marriage. The right length is determined by where you are in your relationship, not by a calendar.
-
Absolutely! The group surfaces material that individual therapy deepens. If your therapist referred you here, that is probably exactly what they had in mind.
-
Rooted Together is the only premarital group therapy in Denver specifically designed for couples who experience marginalization (BIPOC, Queer, First Generation, etc.) built on a culturally grounded clinical framework that names race, intergenerational history, and systemic context as central to relational health, not as add-ons. The 25-topic curriculum covers conversations most premarital programs are afraid to have. And the group format creates a community that individual therapy cannot replicate.
Access is not a privilege here. It is a design principle.
Every Rooted Together group holds one scholarship couple at no cost, funded by the other couples in the group through our mutual aid model. No application. No proof of hardship. No explanation required. If you need a scholarship seat, you tell us when you book your consultation.
The couples who can pay the full rate create access for the couple who cannot. That is not charity. That is community. And it is built into every single group, not offered as a rare exception..
