COUPLES SUPPORTING COUPLES 

There’s a unique power in being guided by another couple who understands the joys and challenges of building a lasting partnership. Unlike individual therapy, we provide dual perspectives, practical strategies, and shared wisdom from our own experiences to help you grow closer, improve communication, and create a thriving relationship.

OUR STORY 

After a mutual friend connected us for a podcast interview, we met up in-person for dinner when we crossed paths in the same city a couple months later, and it unexpectedly turned into an incredible first date that is still going today.

While deep love and connection grew, there have been many hurdles to overcome along the way, and one of the big questions we each grappled with was whether love was enough.

For Emily: A past painful history of never feeling fully chosen made me question whether the long distance for the first year and Kelly being an incredible dad to his two amazing boys would make it difficult for me to be a priority due to circumstance, and feared I'd be left abandoned and heartbroken. All of this required me to deeply choose myself and face lingering wounds that came to the surface around my own self worth. Much to my initial surprise, Kelly has and continues to make me consistently feel more chosen, included, prioritized & loved than I could possibly imagine every single day. But I had to do the deep work to be able to receive his love, too.

For Kelly: I feared that the relationship would get in the way of my sense of purpose and what I'm here to do, and that I’d be left abandoned with nothing to show for it. Getting on the same team was the solution, through being able to be seen, having my own needs met and creating a shared vision for what the relationship got to look like and where we are continuing to go together.

This is only a small snippet, but from navigating long-distance love across international borders, to blending families, co-parenting and working together, we've moved through a lot and continue to grow stronger, laugh more, and fall even more in love and choose each other every day.

This is why we do what we do. Taking a good relationship to extraordinary, and bringing healing, growth and connection to other couples. The results we seen from this powerful work is truly incredible, even in short periods of time.

FROM PAST CLIENTS

Stephanie

"The moment my partner and I got engaged, we knew we would be interested in pre-marital coaching but were unsure of where to find these services. I've been working with Emily 1 on 1, and when she mentioned the option of doing couples work with her and Kelly, I knew instantly that they would be the perfect fit. They created a program perfectly tailored to our needs. We are only 5 sessions in, and our relationship has already transformed in ways I didn't know were possible. If you are searching for the best couples coaches, look no further!"

Spencer

"I cannot sing Kelly and Emily’s praises enough! The sessions my fiancée and I have had, both individually and as a couple, have been tremendous in helping us understand ourselves, how we interact with others, and especially how we communicate and love one another. Kelly and Emily have been able to give us a “play book” on how to better love one another based on our personal needs and predispositions, which has resulted in more self-confidence, awareness, and relational strength. I knew coaching would be beneficial, but I had no idea it would have the amount of impact it has!"
