What does a relationship coach actually DO? I get this question more often than you might think.
Most people have a pretty good idea of what marriage counseling looks like.
Relationship coaching? Not so much.
When I coach someone, I'm looking for the things you can't always see when you're standing in the middle of the problem. The blind spots. The patterns you keep repeating. The ways you might be contributing to the situation. And yes, sometimes I'm going to point out something you don't particularly want to hear. But I'm also going to give you practical tools and specific ways to start showing up differently. Things to take action on.
Maybe you need to stop trying to make your spouse wrong. Maybe you're defending yourself when you think you're simply explaining. Maybe you're waiting for your spouse to change while overlooking what you have control over.
That's coaching.
It's not about choosing sides or deciding who's right. It's about helping you see what you can't see, giving you tools you can actually use, and supporting you as you work toward a different result.
Marriage counseling and marriage coaching are very different approaches.
I wrote a new blog post explaining the differences, what you can expect from coaching, and if this kind of support may be right for you.
If you've ever wondered what I actually do when I work with couples, this is a good place to start.
