Coaching
- Coaching offers a personalized approach to relationship education.
- Using the Appreciative Way model, we focus on appreciating what is
already good and right about a relationship and discovering ways to
continue to grow in those areas. This collaborative approach helps clients
to gain clarity and identify the resources needed for success.
- It is not therapy, which tends to diagnose a problem in order to fix it.
It is not mentoring, which emphasizes character development and values.
- Appreciative Way Coaching is:
 | positive | |
| future oriented | |
| goal oriented | |
| time-limited |
- Coaching is available for couples or singles for 30, 60 or 90 minute sessions.
- Coaching with PREPARE-ENRICH Inventories
PREPARE stands for PREmarital Personal And Relationship Evaluation.
There are no right or wrong answers, or passing or failing scores.
These scientifically developed and tested inventories help couples to
identify their relationships strengths and potential growth areas, and can
help couples to celebrate their strengths and identify potential growth areas
- PREPARE asks 165 questions covering these topics:
- family-of-origin history children and parenting
personality issues family and friends
money management sexual expectations
spiritual beliefs leisure activities
- While over two million couples have taken PREPARE inventories,
a growing number of married couples are now taking these inventories:
- ENRICH - ENriching Relationship Issues, Communication and Happiness
- MATE - Mature Age Transitional Evaluation (for couples over age 50)
- Wedding planning can bring out the worst in everyone, and strain
relationships among family members and friends. Brides especially feel the
pressure to please everyone, and sometimes lose their cool in the process.
Sometimes couples have unrealistic expectations, and can't understand
why everyone else doesn't place the same importance on their special day.
One or more wedding planning coaching sessions in person or by phone
can put things into perspective and help to ease the wedding stress.
Choose from 15, 30, or 60 minute sessions. Call for rates.

sessions before she officiated our wedding, and it was such a great experience for us. After dating for seven years we thought we knew everything about one another, but with Julie's gained new insight into each other's mind and heart. The process was fun and comfortable and just increased our excitement about getting married. When we walked down the aisle,we were confident that we were prepared to take that huge step in our lives."
