Life Coaching

What can I achieve with a Life Coach?

Life coaching helps you bridge the gap between where you currently are and where you want to be in life.

The goal of life coaching is to help you gain clarity surrounding various aspects of your life. Maybe you are feeling stuck or irritable. Maybe you are experiencing increasing levels of stress and/or anxiety. Maybe you are developing destructive behaviors or having difficulty overcoming them. Maybe you feel unfulfilled personally or professionally.

Life coaching is a great tool for overcoming obstacles, improving communication skills, finding motivation, building self-confidence, dealing with difficult emotions, or making smooth transitions.

It differs from therapy in that therapy is provided by licensed mental health professionals who are qualified to make a diagnosis and work with insurances. Our Life Coaches have completed advanced trainings and are Certified to provide professional help. Both therapists and coaches seek to create a supportive relationship with you in order to foster the most growth and development.

Generally the process of life coaching will begin by addressing all of the challenges you are currently facing in order to help you uncover the underlying issue. Sometimes clients are satisfied with just this level in the process, as the clarity and reassurance are all they desired.

The next step in the process is to assist you in choosing and setting goals for your desired future that are clear and attainable. It’s the coach’s role as a facilitator to help you clarify your goals, identify any obstacles holding you back, and to determine strategies for clearing these obstacles. The final step in the process is a perpetual one where you enter into a loop of reflection and self-awareness.

As you change, your beliefs, needs, and priorities shift as well. Therefore, the number of coaching sessions you need will depend on each individual situation and your desired outcome. It is not uncommon for coaching clients to enter and exit the process as situations arise.
