Coaching: it's not Therapy

Coaching can be one of the most positive, affirming experiences you will ever have. It’s about having a creative conversation with someone who can help you become the best you can be in life and in love.  Your love life can turn around faster than you'd ever imagine, when you have both the mind set and skill set to create change.  If you’re like many people, a loving, harmonious, satisfying relationship may seem like an impossible dream.  It doesn’t have to be.  Our approach is unique in UK and we are excited that we can offer real answers to one of life's greatest challenges; finding a partner, falling in love and creating a lifetime of intimacy.

We offer personalised relationship coaching, working with you to develop a plan that responds to the particular issues and challenges you’re facing, to help you create a lifetime of love.  What’s unique about Licence to Love is that the coaching you receive is based on decades of research about what really makes love thrive and you'll receive the support you need to put your personalised plan into action.  

Coaching can help you build the relationship you want

Whether or not you've been lucky in love to date, the joy of loving and being loved, building an intimate relationship is one of the greatest feelings and achievements in life - something worth investing time and energy in.  If you want coaching for some other area of your life, or to learn how to ensure your own children end up in happy relationships, we can help with that too.

It's not therapy

Coaching is not therapy.  It's an approach that anyone can use at any time to improve things in their relationship or to gain confidence finding new love.  Instead of talking in depth about your personal problems, coaching helps you identify what you really want in your love life and then build skills to achieve it, so it's proactive and ideal for anyone who doesn't want to discuss personal issues with a stranger.  Evidence-based counselling (e.g. EFT or the Gottman Method) can also be very useful, but bear in mind that many counsellors and therapists are completely unaware of the latest relationship research.  So if you really want your happily ever after, don't wait.  We will help you develop partnership skills now that are based on sound relationship research.  In just a few days you can be using the skills that people in happy and successful relationships use every day, and you'll be amazed how soon you can have the uniquely fulfilling relationship you long for, in which you are known and loved for who you are.

Partnership skills to create your future

Coaching gives you quality time to explore what you really want in your future, to look at issues and situations that may be holding you back and to gain the skills and confidence you need to make changes.  It’s a great way to get “unstuck” and make well-considered decisions about where you want to go in your life.  It's a way of investing in yourself, giving you time and space to discover more about yourself and develop your skills. Evidence-based coaching will help you make the choices that are right for you, by asking purposeful questions as well as sharing ideas and teaching principles that are based on sound research and experience, that will help you transform your particular situation.

Everything we do is based on evidence

We draw on decades of research, with thousands of couples, and relationship wisdom from around the world. The relationship plans, programmes and one-to-one sessions we offer are based on methods that have been shown to work with hundreds of couples. Evidence-based coaching means you don't have to leave your relationship happiness to chance.  We look at the whole range of partnership skills needed to build a strong and happy relationship - by far the best investment you will ever make in your lifelong happiness.

Whether you're single or in a relationship, and whether things are pretty awful, or generally good and you'd like them to be even better, the research about what happy and successful couples do can help you have a relationship that's truly amazing.  Ask yourself:

Invest in the stuff that really matters...
