The actress, who played Monica Geller in the long-running sitcom, screened her first movie, The Monday Before Thanksgiving, at the LA Shorts Festival 2009 last week.
Speaking to PA, she said: "I actually went to dinner with him and I said, 'David, I need help', and we sat down and he gave me four hours of his time. He gave me some guidelines and thoughts and it really helped.
"I would love to direct more, it's perfect for my personality. I just like doing it, I think it's great... I had the crew that I was working with on Dirt so it was perfect."
Cox added that she would not have liked to direct an episode of Friends, explaining that she was more a "features or movies-of-the-week" director.
