How Can Life Coaching Help Me?
Life (personal) coaching is a practice of assisting clients to determine and achieve personal goals. A coach will use a variety of methods, tailored to the client, to move through the process of setting and reaching goals. Coaching is not targeted at psychological illness, and coaches are not therapists (although therapists may be coaches).
With roots in executive coaching, which itself drew on techniques developed in management consulting and leadership training, life coaching also draws from a wide variety of disciplines, including sociology, psychology, career counseling, mentoring, and numerous other types of counseling. The coach applies mentoring, values assessment, behavior modification, behavior modeling, goal-setting, and other techniques in assisting clients. Coaches are to be distinguished from counselors, whether counselors in psychotherapy or other careers.
Professional coaches are graduates of a coaching program, usually administered by a university or a certified coaching school, such as Coach University, Coachville, iPEC, or a number of other schools certified by the International Coach Federation.
Life coaching helps the clients with any number of issues, including (but not limited to) personal goals, debt management, weight loss, relationships, parenting, conflict management, confidence building, and decision making.
I offer personal coaching in the following areas:
- Decision making
- Are you torn between two major options?
- Are you overwhelmed with too many options?
- Are you afraid to make the wrong decision?
- Are you being pressured to make a decision when you are not ready?
- Relationships
- Do you jump into relationships expecting a commitment right away?
- Are you afraid to date?
- Do you know what you want in a relationship?
- Are you attracting the wrong man or woman time after time?
- Ideal Weight
- Debt reduction
- Is your spending habit preventing you from paying your credit card in full each month?
- Do you need help in staying within a budget?
- Do you pay off your debts only to get back into debt again and again?
- Do you struggle with saying no to the demands of your spouse or your children?
- Conflict management
- Are you having the same fight over and over?
- Is a co-worker making it difficult for you at work?
- Do you argue with your children more frequently?
- Are you having an issue with a friend or relative that needs to be discussed for you to feel relief?
- Confidence building
- Are you afraid to ask for what you want from your spouse or your boss?
- Do you deserve a promotion, but your confidence holds you back from moving forward?
- Are you stuck in habitual behaviors?

Often times people get stuck in a continuous loop, and as your coach, I can help you see your way out of the maze. A coach can see what you cannot: the options and the answers.
