Marriage

Maybe you are a spouse or a couple having difficulties in marriage. Or, your marriage just needs a tune-up in a few areas.

Perhaps you are not a marriage therapist, but still need to know how to support couples as a kind of "First Responder" helping those in your personal or professional life who are in a marriage crisis.

You may be a clergy member, deacon, religious, or member of a church ministry or other organization who, with limited resources, expertise, and time, is often called upon to help marriages in crisis.

Male and Female Differences

There are differences between men and women regarding brain function and design as well as hormones, problem solving styles, and more. Learning about these differences can help to "decode" the behaviors of people with whom we interact, making relationships easier to understand and strengthen.

Boundaries

Boundaries rarely need to be high, thick, and impenetrable walls, but instead can be avenues where you can successfully love and interact with people. Learn how to identify areas that need boundaries, how to implement them, and how to maintain them. I can guide you through the process of seeing where things are out of order and also the process of teaching others how to treat you.

Adult Children of Divorce (ACOD)

ACOD can heal by having time to speak with someone who can receive and understand their thoughts and wounds and, importantly, show them the path toward healing and strength. I live this reality myself and help hundreds of others who experience this. I can guide you through the discovery process showing how being a child of parental divorce may be impacting your life. Please contact me to join one of the many secret social media groups which discuss this issue. This also includes those who have experienced extended parental separation, or other situations where parents were never married. If you interact with ACOD, I can help you with that as well.

This desk is organized and shows one of the services offered by Rightly Ordered, that of making life and home systems more streamlined, effective, and organized.

Home and Life Systems /

Life Management

Cleaning systems, regular house maintenance, chore distribution, time management, etc. can be very specific to the dynamic of your personality, your family, and your situation.

Are your issues laundry, meal planning, family buy-in and training for chores, agreement with your spouse, general flow of your day, time management, or something else that is distracting from your personal and family atmosphere and functioning? Having trouble with parenting issues? Want to train your kids to be equipped to handle home and life management in a way that is developmentally appropriate?

Let's go through an easy process of setting up systems that work specifically for you.

This chart shows progress and represents goals set and attained through accountability.

Goal Discernment and Accountability

Let's spend some focused time clarifying what areas of your life you would like to change. This can involve the various methods of goal-setting, prioritizing, managing time, etc. Accountability comes in many forms, and we'll figure out what works best for you.

This can be done for individuals and for organizations.

Adoption vs Parenting: Discernment and Accompaniment

In an unplanned pregnancy, discerning

- in all freedom - the best way forward regarding parenting or placement for adoption helps care for the needs of all involved. I work with expecting moms/dads as well as those wishing to adopt. I also work with the families of the pregnant parents as they navigate what can be a difficult situation.

I also enjoy working with pregnancy resource centers as they develop programs for presenting this choice carefully.

I am adopted and have worked in many facets of this field. I can also advise politicians on how to understand and present this topic well.

"How Do I Come Across to Others?"

Self-awareness about how you come across to people is important, and we all have our blind spots. People may be receiving signals you do not mean to send. Or, you may have a protective behavior which worked for you at some point in life, but is now not needed and is contributing to unhealthy or at least unfulfilling interactions.

If you or someone in your organization would like to explore this, I'd love to help.

Special Topics

There are certain topics that I may discover, or that you may request, that can be handled individually or with groups or workshops. Please feel free to suggest topics, and if they are in my wheelhouse, I can develop coaching around them, and perhaps already have. A few of the areas above (boundaries and home systems) grew into their own categories in just that way.

Open Topic Life Coaching

Every now and then you may need someone to help you sort out some direction or purpose in areas of your life. It is hard to stop the world and focus, and sometimes people don't know how to start, or perhaps how to bring ideas into a workable plan that gets over the finish line. There are many tools that we can use, and the first may just be having someone to partner with you as you focus and figure it out. I would love to be that person. Open Topic Coaching can cover a wide variety of topics.

"The most helpful thing that came from our work together was gaining confidence in my own skills and having a good set of resources at my fingertips to continue to grown as a wife and mom."

I appreciated that LeeAnne is mindful of her husband and also boundaries. As a member of the opposite sex, I am cognizant of these things with my wife as well. I felt like LeeAnne navigates that issue of speaking with someone of the opposite sex with common-sense and openness.

"I had more confidence in LeeAnne because I trusted
her experience, wisdom
and similarity in faith beliefs.
I knew I could rely on
her recommendations as
'tried and true' methods."
