COMMUNICATION is a crucial element in any successful relationship, but some people just do not have the skills to express their feelings, needs, opinions, expectations and boundaries within their relationship.
And, unfortunately, between two people who are not communicating effectively, you may not get the valuable feedback you need to grow and nourish your relationship, and you miss a chance to learn and do something different.
The main benefit of working with a relationship coach is the clarity of feedback you receive from them. They alert you about the way you are being perceived by others and give you tools to change. Often, they help partners understand each other better by translating and clarifying misunderstandings. They encourage you to try new ways of doing things and observe if they work out better for you.
This week Shazmin explores the difference between couples counselling and relationship coaching.
Can ‘happy’ couples benefit from relationship coaching?
Can it save your marriage? Is that the ultimate goal – or can a dawning self awareness be a more valuable outcome from these sessions?
What about singletons? Would you consider engaging a dating coach to improve your chances of success in manoeuvring the unsteady terrain of the dating landscape?
