Adele offers you...
Blended Family Coaching: This is goal orientated and action-focused to enable positive and immediate change in your family. It gives you the opportunity to discuss the issues you're facing and receive advice, support, accountability and direction for the way ahead. You and your partner can take part together or you can receive coaching on your own.
EFT Couples Therapy: Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples will help you feel more connected to your partner. It enables you to understand and change negative patterns that cause distance or conflict in your relationship, while making it easier to share your deeper feelings in a safe way. EFT is one of the most scientifically researched and evidence based approaches to couples therapy with a high success rate.
Adele and her husband Mike run seminars and workshops sharing their knowledge with couples and professionals on how to blend successfully.

This has been an incredible resource. Thank you for helping me save my marriage. You probably underestimate the magnitude of your positive impact on such an enormously complicated issue. I don’t think I would have been able to do this on my own.
