Maintaining healthy relationships with members of the family is not easy but when you attempt to bring two families together things can get really tricky.
You’ve met your new partner and you both have children of your own. The holidays are coming up and you think this might be a good time for everyone to meet. You may be feeling anxious at the prospect. What if they don’t get along with each other? Where should the first encounter happen? Maybe we should meet for a walk in the park, lunch, dinner… drinks? What’s the right thing to do and how can we give ourselves the best chance of success?
We’ll explore with you the expectations of all parties as well as pros and cons of numerous strategies. We’ll discuss what to take into account and how to prepare the children but above all we will support you to stay on track through the whole process.

Many families need to take on a new addition to the family that will affect its daily dynamic. This can be a grand-parent, a family friend, lodger, children and/or grand-children coming back home. Whichever the scenario it is clear that at least some adaption will be required. We will help you approach the challenge with a creative and open approach that will enable you to put in place a new setting that will suit everyone in the household and thus avoid any clashes and conflicts.

These are difficult times and the family life is under strain like never before. You may be separated and isolated or you may be all on top of each other. These times present an extreme spectrum of experience that can cause real damage to any family unit.
We can work with you either as an individual or as a whole unit to work through the challenges our modern world continues to present to us. Enforced change can leave us with a sense of powerlessness over our lives. While it is true that there are many things outside of our control but there is also a lot that is within it. We can help you connect and creatively evolve with these changing and fluid times. By developing the right mindset and habits our families can flourish despite any enforced restrictions on daily life. Our mental health is vital in such times, We are here to help you get the help and support you need.
Your circumstances are unique

The above scenarios give you a taste of the work we do but there really is no limit to the variety of challenges families bring to us either as an individual struggling with family life, a couple wanted to address their relationship challenges or a whole family unit.
We are all unique with differing strengths and weaknesses. The work we do at Family Life Coaches is to enhance your individual strengths and use them as a spring board to an improved life for you and your family.
