A therapist or marriage counselor is typically a licensed practitioner who focuses on the past. Traditional talk therapy is usually more about the “process” rather than setting goals and outcomes. People are often in therapy for years, whereas with relationship coaching, we set up short-term goals.
Relationship coaching doesn’t dwell in constant emotional issues. A relationship coach holds the space for feelings and emotions but it’s more solution-focused for you to see positive changes and outcomes in your life.
For example, a therapist or psychologist might ask, “How did that make you feel?”, while a relationship coach might add to the question, “What are you going to do now?”, “What could you do better now?”, “How are you going to change this NOW?” In short, a relationship coach keeps you more focused on the NOW, so you can create the relationships you want now..
Why Should I Hire A Relationship Coach? What Are The Other Benefits?
The biggest benefit of working with a relationship coach is the constructive and compassionate feedback you receive from them. Your friends, family, coworkers, and colleagues might hide how they truly feel about you. Or, when they express themselves, you’re not receptive. Many of us are defensive and resistant when it comes to feedback we hear from people we know.
A relationship coach could help you understand yourself better and the way you’re being perceived by others. A relationship coach will give you the tools to change and shift negative patterns. Through direct and heartfelt feedback, useful tools, and practice, your relationship coach helps your relationships become more loving and joyful.

Life and relationship coaches are not therapists, psychologists, or psychiatrists. They ask questions and help you understand your mindset to help you overcome obstacles. However, they can’t treat mental health issues like depression, severe anxiety, or mood disorders. Please see a trained licensed health provider if you think you’re suffering from mental health issues.
