Couples Coaching

According to marriage & relationship experts, couples wait an average of 6 YEARS of being unhappy before seeking help! Why wait another minute more?

It’s OK to desire a deeper and better connection in your relationship!

Sometimes in a marriage or long-term relationship, the communication and connection with your partner shifts. The initial spark and desire you once felt may start to feel more like a tiny flicker rather than a flame. Rest assured, this is totally normal and many couples take on coaching to help maintain their beautiful love!

If you’re feeling:

  • Frustrated by miscommunications and/or misunderstandings

  • Discouraged with feeling disconnected at times

  • Stuck in cycles and patterns

…then Couples Coaching is the next best option!

In Couples Coaching, you will learn how to…

  • communicate in a way that leads to a deeper understanding of each other

  • work together to address concerns, make decisions, and move toward goals

  • accept yourself and your partner’s differences

  • appreciate strengths as a couple and individually

  • empathize and hold space for each other’s emotions

Couples Coaching consists of 60-90 minute sessions and are held virtually, via SimplePractice (a HIPPA compliant platform) weekly or biweekly. Progress is dependent upon couple’s consistency, effort, and presence.

*Please note - Couples Coaching at Lifetime Connections is not:

A substitution for individual or couples therapy. Coaching is skill-based and present-focused to help couples form their best relationship together.

Advice-giving or consulting. Coaching is not a quick fix or solution to unresolved issues. It is a tool that empowers couples to communicate, relate, and attune to each other in a healthier way.

Couples Coaching may not be appropriate if you or your partner are experiencing:

present trauma or PTSD

ongoing relational trauma (infidelity, abandonment, neglect)

active substance use or addiction

current suicidal and/or homicidal thoughts

A referral for therapy through another provider will be given for these experiences and/or according to the therapist’s discretion.
