Marriage Mentoring
What is Marriage Mentoring?
Marriage mentors are experienced married couples who purposefully invests in other couples to support their process of effectively navigating the marriage journey. Marriage mentors allow their hindsight to become someone else's foresight.
Mentoring isn’t a counseling or coaching service.
The definitions below illustrate the differences between these various types of services
and establish boundaries for the mentor–mentee relationship.
MENTORING
Mentoring is a relationship between experienced individuals (mentors) and less experienced persons
(mentees) where the mentors share their experiences and knowledge with the mentees. Mentors can
provide advice, suggestions, and other information from which the mentees can learn and help the
mentees to develop their marriage relationships. As part of this mentor-mentee relationship, the
mentors can also provide guidance and share their expertise, experience, and knowledge. Although
friendships can develop through mentorship, this isn’t the aim of the mentorship program.
COACHING
Coaching is a results-based approach that involves setting goals or objectives and managing professional
and personal change. Led by someone with the necessary expertise (the coach), this activity aims to help
the person being coached to become more aware of aspects that can lead to success and better
performance, possible inconsistencies, and main challenges—often elements the person being coached
isn’t aware of but that are key in their development.
COUNSELLING
Counseling aims to resolve a wide variety of personal difficulties using targeted solutions.
