Master Relationship Coach

Salila Shen

What I Offer

I provide Life & Relationship Coaching for Individuals and Couples. I support individuals to identify what they want to change in their lives, clarify the steps they need to take, and maintain the momentum they need to create the life they want. I coach singles and couples who want to create loving, conscious and fulfilling relationships as well as to learn effective relating skills. I welcome clients of all sexual orientations into my practice.

How I Coach

I offer my clients a safe and compassionate space in which to go through a process of inquiry and self-discovery. As I listen, reflect back what I hear, and ask questions to evoke self-knowledge, my clients gain clarity about where they want to go in their lives. Together we design a strategy with weekly action steps. I encourage my clients to be both creative and realistic. I am intuitive, direct, honest, and take sensitive risks in telling my clients what I see. I am committed to helping clients see what is, and take steps to create what they want.

Who I Coach

  • Singles seeking life partners
  • Pre-Committed Couples who who want to be sure they make the right choice
  • Committed Couples who want to learn how to enrich their connection
  • Individuals who need focus & clarity on a specific issue or situation in their life
  • Individuals who want to create wellness and restore balance in their lives
  • Individuals who need help navigating challenging life transitions
  • Individuals on a path of personal evolution who want a mentor

What Clients Say

 “I was in the middle of my own ‘soul search’ when I began to work with Salila as my coach. Up to that point, I wasn't sure if I was going deeper in my self-reflection or simply lost at sea. Salila has an amazing ability to meet you right where you are and bring the best forward. Within a few sessions, with Salila's great questions and useful insights, I began to get a real sense of where I wanted to go in my life. She is the perfect combination of wisdom, wit, and compassion.”

"Salila's ability to track my in-the-moment process while simultaneously catching every detail of my Vision process reflects her deep wisdom and skill as a coach. Doing the RESTS process with her felt like a huge gift in my life."

Professional Training & Certifications

I received my professional coach training from Coach University – one of the first training organizations for the coaching profession. After graduating from CoachU, I was trained in relationship coaching for singles and couples by the Relationship Coaching Institute. In 2002, I was the first coach to receive the highest certification offered by the Institute  – Master Relationship Coach. In 2004, I completed the clinical training in Imago Relationship Therapy, and am a Certified Imago Educator. I have been coaching clients since 1997, and am a member of the International Coach Federation. I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work, and hope to eventually become a Marriage & Family Therapist.

Other Interests

In addition to my passion for helping clients create conscious and fulfilling relationships, I am interested in spirituality and in self-care. On the spiritual side, I am a student in The Ridhwan School. “The Diamond Approach is the spiritual teaching, the path, and the method of the Ridhwan School… As a contemporary spiritual teaching, the Diamond Approach to Inner Realization considers the totality of the human being. It is a path of self realization and human maturity based on an original synthesis of modern discoveries in the field of psychology and a new paradigm about spiritual nature” (http://www.ridhwan.org). The teaching and practices of The Ridhwan School have had a profoundly transformative effect on my personal development. On the self-care side, I am interested in supporting optimal health & wellness, and am a distributor of supplements. You can learn about these by clicking on the “Optimal Health” link at my website.
