How Do I Find a Good Relationship Coach?

Ever felt like your love life’s stuck on repeat—same bad dates, same frustrating patterns, same dead ends? I get it, I’ve been there too. That’s where a good relationship coach can make all the difference—like a guide who helps you see the path clearly. But with so many folks out there claiming to be experts, how do you find the real deal? Let’s break it down and get you on the right track.
Finding a good relationship coach isn’t about picking the flashiest name online. It’s about finding someone who listens, gets you, and has the chops to help you grow. Over the years, I’ve coached hundreds of singles through my Find The Right 1™ program—folks just like you who’ve turned their dating lives around, with five marriages, 16 engagements, and 67 long-term relationships to show for it. So, I’m here to share what I’ve learned about spotting a coach who can truly help you shine in love.
What Makes a Good Relationship Coach Stand Out?
A good relationship coach isn’t just someone with a fancy title. Here’s what separates the great ones from the rest:
- They Listen Like It’s Their Job (Because It Is): They don’t just hear you—they dig in, ask the right questions, and help you uncover what’s really going on.
- They’ve Got the Experience: Look for someone who’s been in the trenches. I’ve counseled hundreds in private practice with my background in Psychology and Social Work, plus led workshops and spoken to diverse crowds about personal growth.
- They Walk the Talk: A great coach lives what they teach. I’ve been married to my incredible wife, Brooke, for 23 years, and we’re still growing every day while raising our awesome kids.
- They Deliver Results: Real impact matters—think testimonials or stories of success. My program’s helped over 300 singles find love, and I’ve celebrated with clients as their lives changed for the better.
Steps to Find a Good Relationship Coach for You
Alright, let’s get practical. Here’s how you can find the right coach without spinning your wheels:
Start with Their Vibe
Check out their website or socials. Do they feel like someone you’d click with? If their words resonate—like they get your struggles—that’s a green light.
Look for Proven Impact
A good relationship coach has a track record. Maybe they’ve led programs like my Find The Right 1™, or they’ve got stories of clients who’ve transformed their love lives. Results speak louder than promises.
Hop on a Call
Most coaches offer a free chat—take it! I’ve always found a quick convo helps you feel out if they’re your kind of person. Ask how they’d tackle your challenges and see if their approach vibes with you.
Trust Your Instincts
This is big. If they make you feel safe, inspired, and ready to roll—not judged or pressured—they’re probably the one. It’s your journey, so go with your gut.
Make the Move
Finding a good relationship coach is about betting on yourself. You deserve someone who’s got the heart and the know-how to guide you—like I’ve tried to do with thousands through workshops, blogs, and coaching over the years. So, take your time, do your homework, and pick someone who feels like a teammate. Book a call with me today!
