Why Should I Take This Premarital Course from Dr. D’Arienzo?

Don’t be fooled by course instructors who have online Ph.D’s from unaccredited institutions that never led to licensure to practice psychology or those without actual psychology firms who don’t practice psychology. Dr. D’Arienzo sees thousands of couples, is a board certified clinical psychologist and the only actual psychologist who provides online premarital courses. He is a doctor of psychology and psychologist, and not a counselor. He is the real deal! You deserve the best!

How long is the certificate valid?

The certificate is valid for one year from the date it is issued.

How long does the course take?

Florida, Tennessee, and Oklahoma statutes require that you spend a minimum of four (4) hours on the premarital course. Every premarital course offered anywhere in Florida will require the same four hour minimum. The course material should take approximately two hours to read through. The rest of the time should be spent completing the activities together.

Georgia law requires that you spend a minimum of six (6) hours on the premarital course. The Georgia premarital counseling course is structured to be completed with the exercises, which takes at least 4-6 hours if completed as instructed. Please follow the Georgia statute by spending at least 6 hours on the course.

Texas law requires that you spend a minimum of eight (8) hours on the Texas premarital course. The Texas premarital counseling course, TwogetherinTexas, is structured to be completed with the included exercises, which takes about 8 hours if completed as instructed. Please follow the Texas statute by spending 8 hours on our Texas course.

What if we finish the course in less than my state’s required hours?

Each premarital course is structured to take the required amount of hours to complete, including all of the activities and exercises. In the event you complete the course in less than the required time, please re-review the materials that were most significant to you and your relationship. Again, Florida and Tennessee/Georgia/Texas law requires that you spend 4/6/8 hours on the course – these are not our rules and all approved providers must adhere.

Does the course have to be completed in one sitting?

No. The course is self-paced so you can log in and log out at your convenience. There is no timer function on our website so just make sure to track your own time and spend the required hours working on the course materials.

Do we both have to work on the course online at the same time, or can we work on it separately at different times?

We understand that some couples live far away from one another or may have conflicting work/school schedules that make it difficult for both parties to sit down and work on the course together. You may take the course at your own pace (separately OR together). You only need to submit the final quiz once and should do so after you both have finished working on the course.

Participants taking the GEORGIA or TEXAS premarital course: The law requires that you both take the course together.

How do I know if you are an approved provider of this course in my Florida county?

The counties listed on my website are the counties in which I am registered. If you are still unsure, you may call the Clerk of Court where you intend to obtain a marriage license to verify. I would be listed under “Dr. Justin D’Arienzo” or “D’Arienzo Psychological Group”. Please keep in mind that if you call the Clerk’s office and they cannot find me listed as an authorized provider, it is because the office is not looking it up correctly or not checking properly. I have verification from all of the counties that I received approval from in my office, so there will be no issues when you go to obtain your marriage license. Also of note, please do not rely on the Clerk of Courts website, as those websites are not updated regularly.

Is an online course accepted in Florida/Georgia/Tennessee/Texas/Oklahoma?

Yes, if it is done by an authorized provider and meets the requirements of the law.

My fiancé took the Keirsey Personality Test, but when I click on the link from the course it keeps bringing me back to the results of their test. How can I take the test too?

You have 3 options:

1.) When you click on the link from our course after someone has already completed the personality test, it will probably bring you to the test taker’s KTS-II History. On that page there is an option to “Retake the KTS-II” which is located right above the gray summary box. Clicking this option will allow the next person to take the test as well.

2.) Take the test using different internet browsers: If one person takes the test using Internet Explorer, the next can take the test using Chrome, Firefox, Safari or browser of choice. If using the same browser, go into browser settings and delete cookies after the first person takes their test. Click here to learn more about deleting cookies.

3.) We have provided a pdf form of the KTS-II that you can print out, complete, and score. This version will give you your four letter profile just as the electronic one will.

When a student makes a threat at school what do you do

When a Student Makes a Threat at School, What Do You Do? When a student makes a threat within a school environment, it’s a critical moment that demands a swift, comprehensive, and nuanced response. As psychologists, it’s clear that such situations are complex and involve numerous factors, including the mental health of the student, the safety of the school community, and legal considerations. Here are key steps schools should take in response to a threat: Immediate Action and Assessment
Ensure Immediate Safety: The first priority is to ensure the safety of all students and staff. This may involve securing the area, notifying security personnel, and possibly even a temporary lockdown, depending on the nature and severity of the threat. Evaluate the Threat: It’s essential to quickly assess the credibility and specificity of the threat. This involves determining whether the student has the means, motive, and opportunity to carry out the threat. Professionals trained in threat assessment should be involved in this process.
Involving the Right Resources. Mental Health Evaluation: A critical next step is to have the student evaluated by a mental health professional. This evaluation can help determine the underlying issues contributing to the threat, such as emotional distress, psychological disorders, or external pressures. Collaboration with Law Enforcement: In cases where the threat is deemed credible and specific, it’s crucial to involve law enforcement agencies. They can provide additional security, guidance, and ensure that any legal requirements are met.
