Family coaching can assist families with developing, improving, or learning new ways to communicate. Frequently, families get stuck in old patterns of behavior and need to learn to make new or healthier choices. As a coach, you can be instrumental in helping families learn how to change old or unhealthy patterns. Restructuring the family to incorporate equality, empowerment, "good listening skills," plans for change, and a maintenance plan for changes made can be invaluable. Using a change stage model, cognitions of choice, and The Big 5 of Healthy Relationships will provide you with the formula needed to guide families through change so they can learn to make healthier relationship choices. Teaching negotiation, mediation, and arbitration can help families learn the techniques necessary to secure their future in a way that will allow them to remain healthy. Family coaching is continuing to grow and develop, why not join this new and expanding aspect of the field and make a lasting contribution to society?
