conflict coaching for families

What Types of Families Benefit From Conflict Coaching?

  • Families that have stress due to conflicts between the parents regarding the children or with the children;
  • Families where the children are under performing in school;
  • Parents and teens who need assistance dealing with other types of teen issues;
  • Single parents who cannot agree on issues and want to keep their kids from being caught in the middle of their conflicts;
  • Married couples who want a quick and effective resolution of their conflicts;
  • Stepfamilies that are still “blending” together; and
  • Individuals interested in improving their communication skills with those inside and outside of the home.

Why Coaching?

As a coach, Laurie teaches people new skills to manage current conflicts and to avoid future conflicts. Future conflicts are avoided because people learn how to create positive relationships with others. People are amazed at how effective conflict coaching is at getting their needs met and creating peace within the home.

Conflict coaching is different from therapy. Therapy can be a lengthy process of several sessions during which people talk about their childhood. With therapy, the focus is often on changing one or both of the parties. Although this can be effective for some people, others just want to focus on resolving the difficult situation, which is why they prefer conflict coaching.

Conflict coaching is also different from mediation. Mediation frequently involves the courts, whereas conflict coaching usually does not. Mediators have skills to facilitate the communication of others. Conflict coaches have those skills, as well as the skills to teach people how to resolve their own conflicts and to get along better so that future conflicts are avoided.

How Conflict Coaching Works

Laurie works with people either individually, or with all those involved in the conflict. The first step is to obtain an understanding of the current situation. After that, Laurie helps to resolve the current conflict and to teach the necessary skills to avoid future conflicts. Sessions can take place once or on an on-going basis, depending upon the needs of those involved.
