Online Marriage/Relationship Coaching

For over 15 years, Online Coaching has been a highly effective option for many of my clients. Now, more than ever, with the onset of COVID-19 this form of coaching/counseling, for obvious reasons, has propelled itself to the forefront as an excellent, effective and safe option for clients and therapists alike.

Advantages of Online Coaching/Counseling

CONVENIENT: No traffic or weather concerns. Flexible appointment times, evening and weekend appts are available. Meet from different locations when not in same location i.e. home and at work

HEALTH AND SAFETY: Important when social distancing or other health concerns or limitations may hinder your ability to keep an office visit.

ECONOMICAL: Standard rates apply for single sessions. 20% discount when 4-6 session courses are paid in advance.

There are many unknowns surrounding this pandemic regarding restrictions, time frame and economic impact. With these things in mind this is an appropriate time to reach out to my existing, former and potentially new clients via my website informing all, of this practical option for coaching.

My online coaching format is with one couple, not a group webinar. Sessions are interactive and focused on covering a different topic in each session. Proven, successful evidence based programs provide a variety of options.

For example:

Prepare-Enrich Inventory: In this 6 session course, you will acquire a deeper understanding of your relationship dynamics and learn key concepts and relationship skills using the most widely used inventory in the profession.

Couple Communication Course:In this award winning 6 session course, you will learn and develop communication, problem solving and conflict resolution skills that will improve relationships in every area of your life.

Gottman Relationship Checkup: In this 4 session course you will review the results of the Relationship Checkup and learn about the strengths in your relationship and areas that need improvement based on the Sound Relationship House model developed by Dr. John Gottman based on 40 years of research.

The Five Love Languages: This 4 session course is based on the highly popular book by Dr. Gary Chapman. Learn how your preferences for giving and receiving love impact your relationship.

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator: In this 4 session course, review results and learn practical applications based on a better understanding of your own and your partners personality type. The MBTI is based on Dr. Carl Jung’s theory of psychological types.

If unfamiliar or uncomfortable with the online video counseling approach I offer a free secure ZOOM meeting to help you become comfortable with it.

I also offer Facetime sessions if preferred.

Personal Life and Relationship Coaching

PartnerCoach: What’s in a name?

In this case it has many different meanings and applications. It describes the process which I have developed over the years in working with both individuals and couples. PartnerCoach also relates to the idea that I work with couples who are partners in their life together. So… I see my role as a partner is to help couples be better partners. Also I look at the coaching relationship as a partnership between me and my clients working together to achieve their goals. As a professional counselor, I have extensive training and experience in coaching which is similar in many respects to counseling, but different in some ways as well. Counseling or Psychotherapy is for addressing emotional or psychological problems whereas whereas coaching is for guidance and support in achieving a specific goal. My training as a counselor improves the quality and depth of my coaching abilities.

What’s in a Logo?

My logo looks like geometry but it’s about finding BALANCE.

I believe one of the keys to living life to the fullest and being the best one can be is to find balance in these three dimensions in one’s life.
