Love relationships play a vital role in our lives. Feeling loved contributes to one's sense of wellbeing, while falling in love brings heartfelt joy. Differences in background, worldview and status quo are often sources of conflict between lovers and spouses. The worst-case scenario, perhaps, is an failed attempt at impressing a love interest. After all, we know well the negative impact brought by the vicious cycle of stress and relationship issues.
Relationship consulting and coaching have emerged as new options for those seeking advice on love relationship and marriage. Not long ago we could only go to counsellors (who were possibly therapists too) and relationship coaches. Relationship / marriage counselling involves a long, costly, and laborious process that lasts for 3 to 6 months. It suits individuals or couples with relatively serious issues (e.g. major depression, addictions, dysfunctional families) but not the majority of potential advisees. Relationship coaching adopts a general and friendly approach, yet most programs were offered by those with self-proclaimed titles and very little professional training in the relevant fields.
With professional training in both relationship education and coaching, Retta is eager to offer minority-friendly, client-based relationship consultation and coaching services to fill the existing gap in the market:
