What is Relationship Coaching?
Relationship Coaching offers personalized support and guidance for navigating the ups and downs of relationships. This form of coaching is ideal for those seeking expert insights into their communication skills, major decision-making capacities, division of labor choices, intimacy skills, and more. Together we’ll find strategies that work for you and your partner, paving the way for a mutually satisfying and loving partnership.
How does it work?
In a Relationship Coaching session, you will begin to explore the areas of your relationship that need attention and nurturing. You can expect open, honest discussions about your relationship’s strengths and challenges, and together, you’ll develop strategies for improvement. Homework may include reflective exercises, communication practices, or action plans to work on between sessions.
Common Techniques in Relationship Coaching
NAVIGATING RELATIONSHIP STAGES: We and I
This technique guides couples through Ellyn Bader’s stages of relationship development, focusing on how partners can effectively express their own needs while respecting their partner’s different needs. Using a series of communication exercises, we help couples grow closer at every stage, from early unity to mature interdependence.
MINDFUL COMMUNICATION
Mindful communication is a technique from the Insight tradition that incorporates mindfulness principles into everyday living. It involves teaching couples to be fully present during conversations, to listen without judgment, and to speak with intention and compassion. This method helps in reducing reactive patterns and promotes a deeper understanding and connection between partners.
EMOTIONAL AWARENESS AND REGULATION
This technique blends mindfulness practices with developmental insights. It helps individuals in a relationship to become more aware of their emotional responses and understand how these are influenced by their developmental stage in the relationship. With mindfulness techniques like insight meditation (Vipassana), couples learn to observe and regulate their emotions, leading to healthier communication and conflict resolution.

About Your Coach
Hi there! My name is Brigitte. I know firsthand how challenging it can be to navigate the ups and downs of a partnership. I've experienced the pain of losing two significant relationships due to betrayal and not having the tools to work through conflicts effectively. But through those experiences, I discovered an unwavering determination to learn the skills needed for a healthy, loving relationship. My journey led me to the Developmental Model of Relationships, a transformative program created by Ellyn Bader and Pete Pearson, two of the world's leading couples therapy pioneers. I am also a Mindfulness teacher and believe in the power of incorporating these tools in my practice.
As a relationship coach, I'm passionate about guiding others to break free from old patterns and create the collaborative, loving partnerships they deserve. Let's work together to help you rediscover the love, connection, and joy you deserve.
