ABOUT US

Michael and Katrina have been married for nearly 35 years and have 3 grown children. But it hasn’t always been smooth sailing. Together they have faced profound loss, anger, depression, co-dependency and significant parenting issues. Theirs was a marriage on the brink. But as they allowed God to transform their marriage, they developed a passion to help others whose marriages were like theirs. Today they offer hope and tools to couples who are fighting to improve their marriage.

Pastor Michael is the Marriage and Family Life Pastor at Coastline. He is a Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor with advanced certifications in Integrated Marriage and Family Therapy, and Cognitive Therapy. Katrina is trained educator and has been trained in Marriage Counseling.

SOME  WAYS  WE  CAN  SERVE  YOU:

GENERAL MARRIAGE & FAMILY COUNSELING:

If you’re in a place in your marriage where you characterize your marriage as ‘decent’, but has been in a rut, we can help! Perhaps you consider you marriage to be good, but you are currently struggling with a real-life issue such as sex, finances, parenting, etc. We get it. Life can be raw and challenging, and sometimes we just need encouragement and insights navigating these real issues. We are here for you.

CRISIS  COUNSELING:

Let’s be honest – marriage is tough! Homes are meant to be a place of peace, but dysfunction from our past threatens that peace. Wounds from the past can affect present relationships. Wounds from our current spouse can leave us feeling hopeless and helpless and desperately looking for a way out. Fortunately, we can help you find hope and give you tools that will help you interact with your spouse in healthier ways. Restoration is possible!

PREMARITAL COUNSELING

Congratulations on your engagement! We offer a very complete Premarital Counseling program at Coastline. It's personalized hands-on mentoring utilizing a customized program that encourages you to build better communication and conflict resolution skills as you prepare for a lifetime together. Also note that if you are planning to get married by one of the Pastors on staff at Coastline, you must complete premarital counseling. 
You'll be paired with a trained mentor couple who will walk you through topics such as personality, compatibility, husband/wife roles, parenting, finances, and goal setting. This approximately 16 hour course typically takes about 3 months to complete, so be sure to register well in advance of your wedding date.

To register for premarital mentoring through Coastline, both of you will need to fill out a mentor request form using the following links:
