“Louise Saved Our Marriage”

Thanks Louise for your support, the sessions we had with you have totally transformed our relationship.

What is the difference between Couple Coaching and Couple Therapy Counselling?

Life Coaching is not counselling, although there is a strong overlap in the professional skills used. Counselling looks therapeutically at issues of the past, whereas Life Coaching looks at solutions for the future. In other words, it is a solution-focused approach

You will identify for yourself your own values and goals. This often boils down to simply what makes you happy, and this is a really good question to start by asking yourself: What makes me really happy in my life? What areas of my life are causing me unhappiness? and What do I want more of/less of in the relationship?

Being honest with yourself On a scale of 0-10 how satisfied are you with other areas of your life? How is this impacting on your relationship?

Do you want to increase your score and make changes to your life but feel stuck and don’t know how to manage this process on your own?

Couple work is a fantastic form of mediation that enables so much growth, awareness and understanding

Are you unhappy with a specific area of your relationship: e.g. communication, Intimacy, childcare?

Are you feeling confused, overwhelmed or filled with self-doubt?

Are you struggling to find your voice in the relationship and have your needs met?

Are you allowing that low self-esteem, lack of self-belief or ‘ it’s not the right time’ excuses to hold you back?

Are other areas of your life or your partners life, work, hobbies, health concerns, or unhealthy habits getting in the way of you feeling content?

Do you want to understand your partner’s view of the world better?

If you’ve answered YES to any of these questions, then Couple Life Coaching is for you.

’20 years from now you’ll be more disappointed with the things you didn’t do than the things you did’. Mark Twain

Having a vision alone of what you want is not enough! Goals are dreams with legs!
