Relationship Coaching- A Resourceful Tool To Peaceful Co-existence

By Robert Wright


One of the greatest mysteries of life is love and marriage and how couples can begin manifesting desires within them. We are constantly seeking answers of how to lead a balanced and happy life with our partner and family. The interesting thing about marriage is each moment creates a variety of revelations mixed with emotions. Also, there are many instances when you will find Relationship Coaching quite resourceful and relieving.

A counselor or therapist is a licensed clinician with at least a master's degree in counseling or social work, who is trained in techniques to help their patient discover the origin of their problems. Therapy is focused on feelings, the past assumes the client needs healing, and is more concerned with diagnosis and treatment. We ask for help to eat healthily, play a sport and to improve our appearances. Why not ask for assistance to find a compatible life partner and success in love?

A relationship coach is also a trained professional. Relation tutoring, however, is more concerned with focusing on actions and the future, problem-solving, and it also assumes the client (not patient) is healthy and whole. Relation tutoring can help the couple build skills, like communication, that can benefit the couple for a lifetime.

Be aware-if you continue to do what you have always done; you will continue to get what you have always got. Please do not allow any of these excuses to get in the way of partnering with a relation coach:

Coaching is not a kind of therapy or consulting. This kind of coaching believes that couples are experts and know their goals and the Coach only guides and supports them in their attempt to solve their problems. It is important to understand and be open to guidance from a professional relation coach.

Less blaming - you have to take responsibility for your actions and what you each want to accomplish as a couple. Each person has to focus on his or her thoughts and actions. It just won't do to try and blame someone else for something that happened 30 years ago... So that's why you failed. Buck up, take ownership of your part of the problem and make it happen.

The coach informs couples that a relation is part of a journey; not the ultimate destination. A coach can aptly guide couples to concentrate on their long-term goals or improve relations and individuals with finding their life partners.

Comparing Tutoring and Therapy; In short, tutoring denotes a result-based methodology that is based on the assumption that client is functional and entirely capable of success, while (psycho) therapy is a healing profession licensed and trained to diagnose and treat emotional, psychological and mental disorders. Tutoring and therapy can complement each other very well. It could be said that tutoring starts where therapy ends, making tutoring a good fit for personal growth-oriented therapists.
