Welcome to Mustard Seed Coaching and Mediation!
My name is Christine Couch and I live in the beautiful Rocky Mountains in Bozeman, Montana.
I am a functional strategic intervention coach specializing in relationships, conflict resolution, trauma healing, divorce recovery and personal development/behavioral change.
My practice is based on the belief that people’s behavior, is largely responsive (thoughtful) or reactive (subconscious running the show) based on how they think (at at conscious and subconscious level) based on interpretations they have made about life, people, work, etc. Most of these interpretations and developed filters are at a sub-conscious level, therefore below their level of conscious awareness, which is why we often can’t figure out why we are stuck running the same (dysfunctional) patterns in life we do. Trouble is, sometimes (ok, who am I kidding really?) oftentimes our interpretations of life, and thus our filters are not based on accurate or true stories we hold. Further complicating matters because we fundamentally don’t like to think we could be wrong, we don’t even question our stories and take our interpretations as ‘gospel truth’. Stories like, ‘people aren’t safe’, or ‘I can’t change’, or ‘my spouse can’t change’, or ‘I’m doomed to an unhappy marriage’. Those are just a few examples of literally millions of toxic thoughts floating out there in people’s minds.
People think they do this or that because of a feeling-but my belief and studies show, there is a thought pattern preceding the ‘feeling’ or emotion that is driving the behavior. My job as a coach is to help people think differently (I’m a perception flipper) and then teach functional tools so that they can ‘do differently’. Though we collaboratively need to peek briefly into the rearview mirror, our focus is mostly forward towards solutions.
I studied over two years with the Martha Beck Institute as well as Robbins-Madanes Training after starting to study the bible in 2006 along with copious books on coaching and all things psychology, relationships, marriage, communication, trauma healing, mediation, etc. and have as a foundation a biblical world view. I constantly am continuing to add tools to my toolbox.
