The old saying goes that you can choose your friends but not your family. You can, however, choose to make the most of relationships with other family members through improved communication, management of expectations and a good dollop of laughter.

Coaching enables you to take a fresh look at your family situation and start to see your relationships with other family members in a new light. It’s easy to fall back into old habits when we’re with our family – maybe your brother doesn’t knock down your bricks now, but he might flatten your exciting plans; perhaps your mum disapproves of you taking risks, or you might have noticed the adolescent behaviour you thought you’d left behind years ago rears its head when you’re around your parents. These sorts of patterns are set in childhood and can seem pervasive but, approached by a coaching methodology that supports you in looking at the relationships from a resourceful, adult perspective, the fact that your sister used to pull your hair lessens its emotional charge and relationships improve dramatically.

Family coaching can be taken on a 1-2-1 basis, or I can work with you together in a workshop style. Please call if you would like to discuss the best solution for you and your family.
