Marriage Mentorship

MENTORSHIP VS. COUNSELING

Marriage mentorship provides couples with a unique opportunity to receive guidance and support from an experienced mentor. Unlike counseling, marriage mentorship focuses on developing strategies and skills to strengthen the relationship, rather than on individual psychological issues. One of the main differences between mentoring and counseling is that mentoring is a two-way relationship, where both the mentor and the couple work together to find solutions and build a strong foundation for the marriage.

​ 

Mentorship follows a relational and conversational model to develop and strengthen the mentees deepest concerns. Mentors share their real-life experiences to provide real solutions to real problems. Offers empowerment, support, feedback, advice and improved self-awareness and accountability. Does not accept medical insurance. No degree or licensing is required, but mentors have extensive personal (real-world) expertise in the client’s areas of needs. Mentorship is all about passing along the mentors real- life experiences, knowledge, connections & resources to their mentees to empower them to succeed. Topics are conversational in nature on various areas of concerns the mentees may have.

​ 

A counseling relationship is formal & structured, meetings are generally held at the counselor’s office and the duration is not long term.

License Counselors follow a medical model, can sometimes be billed through your health insurance, a minimum of a master’s degree is required for licensing, provides assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of more severe psychological issues. Topics are focused on emotional health, trauma, and overall mental and emotional well-being.

A mentorship relationship is informal and open ended, meetings can be held in various settings including online and by phone, and the relationship is typically long term.

A Mentor has a very specific set of skills helping to grow someone else’s skills in that SAME area.
