Transformational Relationship Coaching

Our transformational relationship coaching is grounded in the following assumptions:

• All individual action (behavior) has consequences that are either beneficial or detrimental for an individual or a couple
• Actions that have recognized benefit tend to be repeated
• Inquiring and shifting how one relates to themselves, others, and circumstances results in significant transformation at a behavioral level and therefore in the relationship
• Sustained relationship effectiveness and change is achieved through monitoring and evaluating actions, strategically targeting ineffective ways of being, and learning and reinforcing effective ways of being through structure and ongoing coaching
• Benefits of lessons gained from experience can be transferred from one situation to another through methods couples can train themselves through the laws of disciplined inquiry
• Calibrating people's ways of being together and the affects of those behaviors and what it takes to transform requires exploring the dynamics of human interaction along with the personal and relational variables at play

Additionally, when coaching married couples:

• God deliberately designed marriage to be more than we could handle....without Him
• He made it to be a lifelong encounter more rigorous and demanding then we could have imagined or invented on our own
• It always turns out to be more than we expected and much more than we bargained for
• Marriage urges us into deep and uncharted waters...for that is its very purpose: to get us out beyond our depths, out of the shallows of our secure egocentricity and into the dangerous and unpredictable depths of a real encounter with the Living God and one another

ACCD's relationship coaches have a unique ability to open possibilities for profound individual and relationship learning. Our learning approach draws upon a non-traditional yet distinctly biblical, proven, and reliable methodology called "transformational technology." It is "transformational" because it does not merely reiterate what is already known, understood or practiced; instead, it causes a break or interruption in past-based behavior for the purpose of rediscovering God's provision and resource in the present. It focuses on new learning and new actions rather than on incremental improvement based on past experience and history.

ACCD Coaching harnesses and maximizes the God-given gifts and power within people to produce unprecedented results. Our Relationship Coaching Academy is an engaging, enjoyable, and high impact experience for participants.

In addition to taking dramatic new ground in your ability to deliver quality coaching conversations, you will experience personal transformation as you engage in the Academy exercises and practice the spiritual and biblical disciplines of transformational coaching.
