    Karen Perkins

    Dating Coach

    Meet our Dating Coach, Karen Perkins. We know that the world of dating can be daunting at first, particularly if you’re new to it after a long relationship. Sometimes we hear it described as a ‘dating jungle’ and to guide you through it and get you up to speed with any potential pitfalls, it can be really useful to speak to a professional Dating Coach. So as part of your joining package with Avenues, we are delighted to say that a free consultation with one of the UK’s leading dating experts Karen Perkins is all included for our Diamond Level members.

    Karen will call you or be happy to have a Skype conversation if you prefer and provide a whole hour’s worth of advice, hints and tips to prepare you for your dating experience and follow that up with her written recommendations for you, according to your own specific circumstances.

    Karen has a wealth of experience in the dating marketplace and has some vital pointers and tips that can help achieve success in that pursuit of finding a perfect partner. She has thoroughly tested out that world of internet based dating, how it works and understands why so many people are now seeking a better solution to finding their special someone. Karen is also an expert in dating over 40.

    Fall In Love With Yourself And The Rest Will Follow!

    These days the world of dating can be a tough one to thrive in, especially if you’re new to it. The BBC and national press have recently highlighted many of the problems, so it is not surprising that many of the people that I meet have issues.

    “I only meet players”.
    ”Everyone I meet has excess baggage”.
    “I just want somebody normal, but like George Clooney or Harry X obviously!”.
    “Am I too old to start dating again?”.
    “What do I wear?”.


    My dating coaching helps you get yourself on the right track, to step back, take the time to reflect and think about what you want, need, and the kind of relationship you’d really like. There are lots of choices!

    There really isn’t any need to dash straight back to a copy of Mr or Mrs EX, or settle for “they’ll do!” We’ve been there and done that and if it didn’t work out it’s probably best to not go there again.

    Working with me and by using Life Coaching tips and techniques you’ll uncover what or who you are really looking for then get a plan to achieve it.

    I’ll provide lots of practical hints and tips too:

    Safe dating…and how to weed out creeps first.
    Juggling your family or your ex and your new romance.
    Getting yourself ‘ready to date’.
    Flirt coaching or dummy dates!
    Dating after divorce.


    Date coaching, like life coaching I believe gives you a real opportunity to explore first of all who and what you are looking for, to practice exactly what you want to achieve and how you’re going to get there, plus help build your personal confidence to the right level to believe in yourself and to really begin to enjoy meeting people and dating again. Even if it’s all brand new!!

    And my first consultation is completely free as part of the Diamond membership package with Avenues Dating, so get in touch and join today. As together we can achieve SO much. Karen’s advice and feedback is included in the Avenues membership package and make it outstanding value for money, so if you are looking for a company, where customer service and care still matters, where integrity, value and transparency of service are our watchwords, then contact Avenues Dating today by clicking here to join, ringing us on freephone 0800 644 4170 or emailing us at [email protected]

    Liz

    Membership Adviser

    Having joined Avenues in early 2014, Liz is very experienced within dating and matchmaking services and takes a totally professional approach to her role as a Membership Adviser. She is intelligent, personable and very caring. Liz understands how important it is to take time when engaging with new clients and discussing how the Avenues matchmaking service can be a better alternative to regular online dating, offering a more supported and secure way of searching for a new partner. Liz understands that particularly people who are more experienced in life, will prefer a mature dating service where their personal and private details are kept private, rather than as with typical online dating, where profiles and other personal information is readily accessible to anyone on the internet.

    Liz is particularly proud of the work we do at Avenues in keeping our clients as safe as possible, with vetting protocols for everyone we would recommend to you as our valued client.
