What is Life and Career Coaching?

 

A certified life and career coach helps clients identify goals in their personal and professional lives.  By asking the right questions, we help the client prioritize their goals and create a plan to achieve them.  By helping our clients explore the options in their lives, we can challenge them to go beyond their comfort zone.

 

We help remove roadblocks such as fear, procrastination, perfectionism, and through subsequent  sessions, hold our clients accountable for remaining on the path to success. 

 

Our Approach

 

We understand that each of our fellow human beings comes into the world with various gifts and talents.  Our hope is that we are able to provide a supportive enviroment where our clients can design the life that they want.  Our role will be to act as a guide and a coach.  Our intention is that each of our clients will transform from where they are to where they aspire to be by working with us to set their personal and professional long and short term goals.

 

Our Guiding Principles

 

We have respect for each of our clients individuality and beliefs.  We strive to support our clients in looking at their

current goals and aspirations and working out a set of S.M.A.R.T. goals to achieve them.  

(S - Specific, M - Measurable, A - Achievable, R - Realistic, and T - Time-limited)

 

What's the difference between coaching and counseling?

 

Traditonal therapy involves reviewing a clients history including childhood challenges and helping the client identify and overcome blocks from their past.  Coaching focuses on issues that the client is facing now and helps the client focus on next steps for their future.  

 

Are the sessions covered by insurance?

 

No, but considering that you will have far fewer sessions than traditional therapy, it will possibly cost you less in the long run, even with insurance.
