Personalized Coaching
Helping you reconcile, heal and flourish in your marriage . . . even if they’re the only one fighting.
Who needs a relationship coach?
There are a lot of hurting relationships out there and I work with all of them: parent-child, boss-employee, friend to friend and everything in between.
That being said, those who most often seek out my services are those in intimate or romantic relationships: married, engaged, or cohabitating couples.
With my decades of experience teaching pre-marriage as well as Super Couple 101 seminars, I also coach those couples preparing for or considering marriage as well as those couples considering or already in the midst of divorce or separation.
No marriage is too far gone to be repaired!
As a marriage coach and not a counselor, one question I’m asked frequently is, “What’s the difference?” These are the primary differences:
- A relationship coach has more of a forward and solution-focused perspective, while the average counselor focuses more on the past problems. Of course, in coaching sessions we always look at the past as it relates to the “presenting problem,” but we focus more on getting unstuck and going forward.
- As a coaching client, your time with me is not rushed but is finished when you are finished discussing your concerns. I was always frustrated when I went to counselors and just as I was getting to the meat of the issue, my “time was up” and we were rushed out of the office and told to come back in another week. Why can’t I just stay and figure things out now rather than rehashing things all over again next time? So frustrating! The average session lasts between an hour and an hour and a half.
- Clients are able to reschedule their subsequent appointments when they feel they need a session — not in a week whether they need one or not. People aren’t always helped by returning for a required scheduled follow-up visit when things are going well, as it requires them to open up a wound that has already begun healing. With a coach, clients call when they are in crisis or feel it’s time for their next session, and we can work a timelier session into both of our schedules.
Hi, I'm Dr. Christine
I help individuals and couples restore, strengthen, and transform their relationships, even when they feel stuck, broken, or beyond repair.
For more than three decades, I’ve worked as a speaker, author, trainer, and coach, guiding people through the real challenges that come with marriage, family life, and complex relationships. My focus is practical and results-driven: helping you communicate clearly, rebuild trust, and move forward with confidence.
I don’t offer quick fixes or surface-level advice. Real healing takes honesty, effort, and the right guidance. I will challenge you when needed, support you throughout the process, and give you the tools to create lasting change.
One of the core principles I teach is this: transformation often begins with just one person willing to act differently. You don’t need to wait for everything to be perfect to start making progress.
My background includes over 30 years of experience, more than 1,000 seminars delivered, and work with a wide range of clients including couples, individuals, leaders, military families, and professionals. I’ve also led pre-marital seminars with Catholic Charities and continue to help people at every stage of relationship life.
I’m also a wife, mother, and grandmother, and my own marriage journey has shaped the work I do today. I know firsthand that restoration is possible.
If you’re ready to rebuild, reconnect, and create something stronger, I’m here to guide you through it.
How I work
Coaching with Dr. Christine
I charge a per-session fee and not an hourly rate. Clients are able to relax knowing they don’t have to rush to get their story out for fear of going overtime.
I will come to you, or you can come to me. It’s important that clients be comfortable in their environment. (I do charge a fee for travel outside a 25-mile radius from my location.)
I will send you a zoom link so clients can be anywhere around the globe (it truly is a small world).
I take cash, check, charge card or Venmo; I cannot take insurance payments.
How to schedule an appointment
I coach no one without having first conversed with them to ensure that we both feel it’s a good fit. Contact me via the button below to arrange a call, and I will respond to your outreach as soon as possible.
