Our approach is based on taking authentic action, building relationship skills and cultivating sustainable attraction.
Contrary to other dating coaches, you won’t find any sleazy pickup tactics here. Our philosophy is that if you want a satisfying relationship, you need to begin as you wish to continue - without playing games or wearing a false mask.
If you’re seeking a long-term, committed relationship, and are ready to refine your dating strategy and show your best self to potential partners, read on to learn more about what it means to work with us!
People date for a whole range of reasons.
Some date for fun or for sex…
Others date for validation or freebies!
Then of course there are those who are genuinely dating for love. People like you, who are looking for someone special to share the next chapters of their lives with.
And that’s exactly who we are here to help!
Hi, I’m Jiveny. I founded Dating For Love in 2016 shortly after meeting my now husband Joe, because I’d finally overcome my own dating struggles and wanted to help others do the same and experience true love. Prior to that, I’d noticed a big education gap between the kind of epic love story most people are seeking and their ability to make it happen for themselves.
The truth is, so few of us have had good relationship role models, and much modern dating advice is a misguided attempt of the blind leading the blind even further astray! I figured if I could help people develop their dating and relationships skills to achieve good love, this knowledge and understanding would naturally be passed down from generation to generation, resulting in a much happier and healthier world.
With this in mind, my goal as a coach is to give you the tools you need to build strong, lasting connections without sacrificing your authenticity in the process.
Hey, I’m Joe. Relationships didn’t always come easy to me - I’ve certainly had my fair share of awkward moments and relationship fails. All this has added fuel to my fire, eventually leading me to study at the Relationship Coaching Institute and join forces with my wife, Jiveny to create Dating For Love.
I know how lonely looking for love can be, whether you’re chronically single or struggling with a bad relationship. This is why I’ve made it my mission to help people like you overcome the blocks and barriers that are keeping you stuck, so that you can finally experience the relationship you’ve always wanted. Often we just need a little helping hand!
Hey, I’m Cara. I know what it’s like to be alone and fear the possibility of never finding ‘your person’ as well as the pain and loneliness that comes with being involved with the wrong person. Fuelled by my own journey of dating and challenging relationships I soon came to realise that I was missing some key pieces needed to make a great relationship work – one where we could both thrive together.
This led me to undertake the Conscious Relationship Training in Vancouver, BC. Following that, I obtained my coaching certification from the Relationship Coaching Institute. This knowledge and understanding has since led to the most fulfilling, stable, supportive and loving relationship of my life! Now, my personal growth journey fuels my passion for helping others to discover themselves, grow, and find love in their own unique way.
As your coach, my goal is to expand your self-knowledge and provide you with the tools to create the loving relationship you’ve always dreamed of.
Hey there, I’m Rosette, and I’m honoured to be a part of the Dating For Love team. What excites me most about my role is the opportunity to guide our valued clients on their journey to love, whether it’s through designing eye-catching graphics or offering personalised assistance via email. At Dating For Love, I find a sense of fulfilment beyond the daily tasks by utilising my skills, embracing creativity, and learning from the best dating coaches.
And we understand this paradox - relationships can be either our biggest source of happiness (if we get it right) or our biggest source of misery (if we get it wrong).
The problem is, most people have bought into the fairytale that good love will just happen to us when the time is right. And when it doesn’t happen for us like the fairytale suggests, we often start to beat ourselves up and wonder what’s wrong with me!?
The truth is, love is not enough, and getting the love you want requires a bit of effort and thoughtfulness…
With this in mind, we recognise that by supporting people to develop their dating and relationship skills, they too can experience a meaningful, fun and secure relationship.
The good news is all this can be learned - we’ve seen this happen for our clients over and over again!
What’s even better is that this approach tends to have a positive ripple effect upon your wider community; because relationship skills are life skills that help us to connect and find our own sense of belonging and purpose in society. And when we lead with good relationship habits, others tend to follow!

Saying that, our approach is a little different to most dating coaches. You won’t hear us telling you to pretend to be someone you’re not. Rather, we’re here to help you step into the best version of yourself!
Since 2016, we’ve observed the key relationship skills and habits needed in order to build and keep a great relationship.
When you understand these archetypes, you can use them like a map to orient yourself toward strengths and improve your weaknesses.
Each archetype reflects key elements of a healthy relationship: being safe, effective, warm and sexy. They’re designed to help you identify and develop core dating and relationships skills, and communicate these skills to a potential partner while you’re dating them.
Our framework will help you to get clear on what you really bring to a relationship - the good and the bad - and begin to understand what areas you need to work on to build a relationship from a place of mutual respect and love.
Work closely with one of our coaches on your dating journey. Build a healthy dating mindset, gain a deeper understanding of the blindspots and barriers holding you back, and get personal support along your journey to great love!
We offer a variety of self-paced programs to support you in attracting and building an extraordinary relationship. Learn how to date for love and build sustainable attraction as you navigate the modern dating scene with more clarity and insight.
Knowing your attraction archetype reveals your strengths and your pitfalls. It takes you closer to truly understanding modern dating dynamics, improving your relationship skills, and expanding your opportunities to find a great partner.
Before working with Jiveny I was struggling with choosing the wrong men and navigating my insecurities. I wanted a serious, committed relationship but I often had trouble keeping guys interested or would wind up chasing them away. Other times, I would go for an easy guy who liked me (which was never very satisfying).
Since working together, I’ve noticed a huge shift in my mindset and approach to dating for the better. I’m much more able to manage my reactions and approach, allowing the guys I am interested in to come to me.
I’ve now met a great guy who is proactive in building a healthy relationship with me and who puts effort in to keep things fun and interesting. Even better he also takes an interest in personal development and makes open communication feel effortless and natural. Overall, I have been amazed with how much I have learnt and progressed and I cannot recommend Jiveny highly enough!
I did not have good relationship modelling from my parents, which Joe has helped me understand. He's given me a healthier framework that I can use to assess future potential partners.
Without having done this work, I can guarantee that I would still be making the same mistakes. It's a challenge but I now believe that something better is waiting for me.
SAM, 27 | PROJECT MANAGER
Before working with Jiveny I had just come out of a 6-year relationship and was realising I didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes or be with that kind of person again. After working with Jiveny I experienced a major shift in my dating behaviour. I was much more able to identify partners that were not suitable for me and avoid them, as well as understand how to navigate dating better and really get to know a partner as we built the connection.
Best of all this journey has led me to a healthy, fulfilling relationship where I feel a new awareness and confidence! I know what I want and deserve in a partner and I am able to bring my best self to the relationship. I didn’t think it was truly possible to find this kind of relationship before working with Jiveny.
Before working with Joe I was unsure of myself, as I was starting out on my dating journey and feeling a bit overwhelmed given my lack of experience in this area. Diving in the deep end was essentially what l'd done, but without any real method to what I was doing I couldn't tell if I was moving forwards or backwards. I found our work together insightful by being able to get a different perspective on my experiences, and being able to develop a constructive way forward and draw from the experience of someone else. ever been able to say before.
I was disillusioned with my dating life and seeking a long-term healthy relationship so I contacted Jiveny. From our very first session, I felt comfortable and excited to begin working with her.
Through our work, she helped me identify my barriers, clarify what I wanted in a partner and what a healthy relationship looked like. I was also able to identify the mistakes I had been making. This work has really helped me to developed much more confidence in dating and relationship and I was excited to put what we worked on into practice.
I am now in the best relationship I have ever had and excited for the future. I attribute this to the work I did with Jiveny. Whether you are in the dating world or in a relationship, I would not hesitate in recommending Jiveny. She has changed my life for the better, making me the happiest I’ve been in a long time.
Before working with Jiveny I had been meandering the online dating circuit for about 18 months with no real luck beyond a third date. Jiveny helped me to understand the destructive patterns I had created for myself and assisted me in developing a greater awareness of the ways in which I was self-sabotaging my love life.
Throughout our sessions together, I felt a genuine sense of care from Jiveny and never rushed. Her course materials and resources are fantastic and really helped me to get clear on what I want from a relationship and why. The best support has been in understanding the decisions I have made and how these have drawn the wrong kinds of people to me in the past. The tools she has given me to navigate dating and relationships are invaluable.
Best of all, I am now in a healthy long-term relationship with a wonderful man.
Jiveny gave me permission to speak openly about some of my deepest fears, anxieties, desires and dreams and was completely present with me as I talked. Her questions guided me to self-assess and reflect on my own beliefs and attitudes in ways that I had never considered before.
Through this, I discovered new ways to think about and overcome habitual thought patterns that had been preventing me from self-acceptance. Most of all, Jiveny helped me identify the deeper core feelings and unmet needs stopping me from living my life fully. After our coaching sessions I've felt a deeper sense clarity, confidence and a true sense of empowerment.
Jiveny’s support has bolstered my confidence in building future relationships, guiding me along the right path and imparting invaluable insights on the journey ahead. I am extremely grateful for Jiveny's invaluable guidance and support throughout the past year that helped me achieve significant personal development. Recently, I found someone with whom I share a deep connection and I’m thrilled to announce we are now in a committed relationship!
I hope more people can benefit from her work – I highly recommended it!
