Pre-Marriage Mentoring

with Hayne & Ruth Ann
Picture

Hello! We are Hayne and Ruth Ann.

We've been married since 1996 and we have three amazing children along with one superstar grandson. We met as students at Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida where we were both students and Young Life leaders. Since 1993, we have been serving together in ministry with Young Life and the local church all over the southeast. Five years ago, we opened up Elbow Tree Christian Counseling in Saint Augustine with the intent to uniquely serve individuals, couples and families in our community. 

We'd love to explore if meeting with us is a good fit. 

    Interested in a 15-minute phone consultation?

Are you recently engaged or considering marriage ?

One of our favorite things to do together is meet with couples who are exploring lifelong love together. Whether you are recently engaged or in the process of exploring marriage, we believe you would benefit greatly from an investment in pre-marriage counseling with us.

Hayne is a trained Marriage and Family therapist and Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Ruth Ann serves in full time ministry as an area director serving on the Young Life staff for over 25 years. They are both certified SYMBIS Assessment facilitators and enjoy co-mentoring couples for the purpose of (1) Pre-Marriage (2) Marriage Refresh or (3) Re-Marriage.  

Over the course of 8 sessions, Hayne and Ruth Ann co-facilitate a process designed to help guide couples to access the love they want, explore areas where they often feel triggered and to assess key areas of their relationship that will be vital for experiencing lifelong love. 

WHAT IS THE COST?
Normally 8 sessions co-facilitated by Hayne and Ruth Ann runs $150 per session but they offer couples a 20% discount if they pay in full up front. So instead of paying $1200, couples can bundle all 8 session for only $960. 

HOW DO WE GET STARTED? 
It's easy to get started. Simply email Hayne at hayne@elbowtreeflorida.com and tell him you'd like to set up 8 Pre-Marriage sessions. If you have additional questions, Hayne is happy to answer those questions in an email or over the phone at (904) 290-6822. 

You can also just schedule your first couples session to meet with Hayne and Ruth Ann by scheduling an appointment online. It's super easy. Here’s the link to schedule an appointment online in Hayne's secure client portal; https://hayne-steen.clientsecure.me 

DO YOU OFFICIATE WEDDINGS TOO?
Yes. Hayne has been ordained and officiating weddings for couples since 1998 so far totaling over 30 weddings. Ruth Ann is also ordained and more recently has joined Hayne as a wedding co-officiant.

​To have Hayne and/or Ruth Ann serve as your wedding officiant/s, email them your dates. They will take a look at his calendar and see if those might work. All travel expenses would need to be covered along with a $1000 stipend.
