Couples Coaching

Couples Coaching:

Couples coaching provides a structured and supportive space for partners to strengthen their relationship, whether they’re looking to enhance an already strong connection or address specific challenges. It’s a powerful way to grow together and create a thriving, healthy relationship. Couples learn to communicate more effectively, reducing misunderstandings and increasing connection. It can help couples rebuild or deepen emotional intimacy. Couples coaching also helps couples align on shared life goals, values, and visions for the future. Couples can build or rebuild trust, enhancing the sense of security and partnership in the relationship. Both partners can experience individual growth and growth as a team, creating a more fulfilling and supportive partnership.

The challenge:

Are you struggling with communication breakdowns? Miscommunication or lack of communication is a common reason couples reach out. This can involve misunderstandings, difficulty expressing feelings, or conflicts that seem to escalate rather than resolve.

Unresolved conflicts often lead to built-up resentment, turning even minor disagreements into explosive arguments. Many couples find themselves in recurring conflicts over topics like finances, intimacy, or family responsibilities—and benefit from tools to approach these topics constructively.

Major life changes, such as marriage, parenthood, career shifts, or retirement, can add stress to a relationship. Coaches guide couples through these transitions, helping them set realistic expectations and adapt to new roles within their partnership.

Parenting disagreements around styles or discipline can also strain relationships. A coach can help partners align on parenting strategies that support both the children and the relationship.

Some couples realize they feel more like roommates than partners. Life’s daily demands can create emotional distance, especially if partners don’t actively nurture the relationship. Coaches work with couples to rebuild connection, reignite passion, and create quality time for each other.

How I support you:

Working with couples focuses on creating a collaborative space for both partners to communicate openly, clarify their goals, and work toward a shared vision. I often start by understanding each partner’s unique perspective, values, and goals. Effective communication is central to any strong relationship, so I typically help couples develop skills for active listening, empathy, and expressing needs without blame or judgment. Techniques like reflective listening or nonviolent communication are common tools used in this process.

I ensure that each partner remains accountable for their actions and commitments within the relationship and provide a supportive environment to help both partners consistently work toward their personal and relationship goals.

Through these steps, couples can move beyond immediate challenges, creating a more fulfilling and resilient partnership.

“My husband and I have greatly benefitted from couples coaching with Maggie. Each session Maggie supported us in dialing in on our relationship priorities and guiding us towards tangible strategies for living into our best partnership. While working with her, we faced some significant parenting challenges. Maggie went above and beyond supporting us through this difficult period. We are so grateful for Maggie’s knowledge, connections, accessibility, and empathy. We highly recommend working with Maggie. She made a significant, positive difference in our lives.”
