Premarital Counseling?

I have been in some rough relationships including an engagement before and through God's grace have been able to move on.I am now engaged to a man I have been with for 2 years, however these 2 years have not been all wonderful. During our dating faze his parents decided they hated the ground I walked on because I was black, my fiancee is white, so they made my life a living hell, so bad I ended up having to take them to court and get a protective order. Things after that settled down a bit then my fiancee went through what he is now calling a lie, but basically what he did was started acting like he was mentally ill, drug me and other though various drs & specialists with him, applied for social security and things were just really rough for a while. Now after about a year of the torture he is back to acting somewhat normal, has decided to go to college, is working hard to complete a degree, the "mental illness" issue has disappeared, and he even told me that he just did it for attention. We are planing on getting married later in the year however I am thinking that premarital counseling may help to get some things out on the table and allow us to discuss them before we get married. What advice can anyone give?? And please do not be rude I do love this man and care about him greatly.
