Frequently Asked Questions - Relationship Coaching & Domestic Mediation

Relationship coaching emphasizes personal growth, communication skills, and actionable strategies for creating stronger relationships. We work with individuals or couples to help them set goals, overcome obstacles, and enhance their connection. Coaching is often for those who want to enhance their relationship or overcome common challenges, such as improving communication, building trust, navigating power struggles, or navigating life transitions.

Relationship counseling tends to be more focused on emotional healing, addressing deep-rooted issues that may have been present for a long time. It often involves exploring past experiences, patterns, and trauma that may be affecting the relationship. Counseling is typically recommended for couples experiencing significant distress, such as emotional or psychological trauma, or issues related to mental health.

Yes! Relationship coaching is a great fit if:

• You’re working toward specific relationship goals: Whether it’s strengthening your connection, building trust, developing healthier ways to communicate, or improving intimacy, coaching offers actionable strategies to help you reach those goals.
• You’re focused on growth and self-improvement: If you're looking to grow both as an individual and as a couple, coaching can help you build a stronger relationship foundation.
• You're not dealing with deep emotional trauma: Coaching is ideal if you're facing everyday relationship challenges but aren’t dealing with major emotional wounds or mental health issues (which may require counseling).

Yes! Relationship coaching is confidential, your privacy is important to us. We adhere to ethical guidelines that prioritize client confidentiality, meaning any information shared during sessions remains private. However, in certain cases, for instance if there is a risk of harm to oneself or others, we may have to break confidentiality, but this is rare. 

Coaching sessions typically last 1 hour, depending on the needs of the couple or individual.

Mediation services  are $150 per hour

Yes, mediation is confidential. I follow Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) rules and adhere to ethical guidelines that prioritize client privacy. Any information shared during mediation remains private, except in cases where there is a risk of harm to yourself, others, or suspected child abuse or neglect.

While our conversation remains confidential, the signed mediation agreement will be submitted to the court where applicable. Your privacy is important, and I am committed to maintaining your trust throughout the process.

The length of mediation depends on several factors, including the cooperativeness of the parties involved, how much information has been gathered in advance, and the number of issues that need to be resolved. While each situation is unique, I strive to guide you through the process in a timely and efficient manner, ensuring that we address all necessary concerns.
