5 keys for building strong and long-lasting relationships
One of the most common topics when people are looking for coaching and counselling sessions is to improve their love life.
Lifecoaching & Counselling applied to love relationships
One of my clients was struggling with his love life and with the relationship he had. He was feeling overwhelmed by the ongoing fights and drama and these feelings were draining his energy.
During our sessions, we started to go deeper in which emotions and thoughts he was experiencing and which automatic responses he had every time a new discussion would take place.
Only by doing that, he could feel a relief. He could see that there was an space between himself and all these involuntary behaviors.
We also started to understand what was important for him in his love life and what other options he had to respond to the same kind of situation.
In any moment we were trying to change the other person, we were focused on what he could do differently in those circumstances.
He started practicing new behaviors and he was gradually feeling better about himself. He also became more aware of what makes him happy in love. This step by itself made him naturally to spend less time doing what does not feel good to him.
Small changes made with awareness can make such a huge difference in our well-being. And we feel so strong when we know our values and we commit to them.
What does a Life Coach & Counsellor do?
A Life Coach and Counsellor is a professional that helps the clients to deal with their life situations. It can be that the client has a specific goal to achieve (e.g., to lose 5 kgs, to pass in an exam, becoming more disciplined, etc.) or it can be that the client needs help to deal with a challenging event (e.g., the loss of a loved one, a current relationship, insecurity to speak in public, etc.). Lifecoaching and counselling is therefore a process led by the client.
And how does the journey look like?
The process can take one or more sessions. Each session is a conversation where the Life Coach and Counsellor will ask questions and sometimes use tools to help the client to see the situation through different angles. It will also help the client to go deeper in the experience. This step by itself can be very healing and transformative. Depending on the situation, the Coach/Counsellor will also help the client to define sub-goals and actions that can lead to the desired situation.
It is not a process where the Coach/Counsellor will tell the client what to do. Instead, it is an empowering journey where the client will get in contact with his/her inner strength and will have the opportunity to commit to different choices.
Is LifeCoaching or Counselling for you?
We all go through events in our lives. Some of them are easier than others.
When we are experiencing a challenging moment, it is natural for us to be emotional about the topic and to repeat the same pattern of thoughts regarding the situation. And when this is the case, positive change become less likely to occur.
When you open up with a coaching/counsellor, you get the opportunity to see yourself and the events you are experiencing from a new and fresh perspective. You will be guided to explore the aspects of your situation from new angles and to go deeper on your feelings and thoughts related to it. The process will give you the opportunity to get to know yourself better and to make different choices.
We can't always change what is going on, but we can change the ways how we respond to what happens to us. Getting in contact with our deepest self helps us to remember why we are here and what has value to us. Eventually, we feel empowered and more free to make different choices.

At this moment, some of us might be feeling frustrated because life looks so different than what we would like it to be. We might then find ourselves sad, feeding negative thoughts and narratives about how difficult things are.
