Marriage Coaching Houston Texas

We are not allowing our differences in opinion or desires to grow into difficult discussions that become heated. We are using the tools, especially "I" statements and active listening to first understand before making judgement calls. Often, we never get to "judgement" any more...simply listening, understanding, asking questions, brings us to a place of understanding, evaluation and decision. It was a great experience. Our coaches were very supportive and understanding throughout the process. It was obvious that the Lord has called them to help others in this way. We were in a tough place before coaching. Not respecting each other’s differences and thinking the worst a lot of the time. I have learned to really appreciate how different my husband is from me. The tools have really been beneficial and I can honestly say I appreciate my husband more than ever. I see how the Lord has put us together to complement each other and become one. I am very grateful for this. There is more joy and I finally feel like we are on the same team. We are closer and the house is much more peaceful and joyous. I think we are setting a great example for our children.

Prior to coaching, I felt like we were stifled in our communication. We were arguing a lot as we were going through several life-changes at once. Coaching helped us get on the same page again and start working together as a team more easily. It helped me feel more comfortable talking about feelings and other intimate subjects with my husband.

My husband and I have been married a long time, raised a family and have successful careers and community. We also fought with words that were unnecessary and never achieved any progress. Tears, yelling, anger and loneliness were my experience and my husband reacted by shutting down and not being able to hear my needs. We have had the same disagreements and fights all these years. We look at things differently now after coaching. We have the same feelings but we process them differently. The coaches were the best ever! They used the exercises to promote growth in our relationship. We discussed our views and they taught us a view that we did not see before coaching. We were able to redefine what was important, understand how we have our own views, and move forward to a healthy sense of commitment. The tools we learned in coaching helped us communicate, have faith, forgive, and move towards celebration of all we have done right in our marriage.

Our coaches did an amazing job at creating a safe place and daring to bring up topics that I may have not on my own. Between our business and COVID, we just weren’t taking the time to dig deeper in to our relationship. This created a system and process to do the work allowing us to strengthen our bond. We have a better perspective of each other and our differences, we exercise more patience with one another, we have put some agreements in place that will serve us in a positive way. We’ve gained a lot of clarity about our relationship and our life.

Our relationship was strained and on edge. We didn’t trust each other and would get locked into impossible conversations. We weren’t sure what was wrong or how to make things better. Our coaching experience was very positive. Our coaches were warm, welcoming and non-judgmental. We were accepted and loved through the whole process. We now have simple, effective tools to communicate and work as a team at building trust and resolving conflicts. We also have strategies for getting through difficult conversations and have agreed not to bring up the past.

There was an overwhelming sense of unabashed love I experienced from our coaches amidst the challenge, tears and joys. They always had a tender way of challenging my unhealthy beliefs, my baggage and my negative emotions. They made me feel completely safe, while still having the freedom to speak into my life. We were constantly dealing with the past and allowing negative, learned behavior from our childhood to hinder us. This program has changed everything for us. He now have healthy communication and a better understanding of each other and how we can use our strengths to accomplish goals and work through conflict together. I learned how to value my husband over my own selfishness.

Our coaching experience was positive, tumultuous, stretching and helped us to improve the relationship instead of experiencing it disintegrate. We were hoping for something different than counseling that would give us skills to move forward. The communication tools were most immediately helpful. The coaches modeling the skills helped us understand what to do. Before coaching, we didn’t have the skills or know how to express our thoughts and feelings and be ourselves. This may have been a last hope for finding help. We are a lot happier now. We are able to talk about deep and emotional issues in our lives. After 30 years of poor interpersonal relationship, things are changing.
