What is Life Coaching?

Home » Areas of Specialty » Life Coaching » Page 82

Life coaching is different than mental health counseling in critical ways, but both types of specialists offer benefits. Life coaches typically can’t diagnose and provide treatment plans for mental health disorders. Counselors and therapists do. Life coaches help people establish goals, find motivation, and achieve those goals. Their focus isn’t on mental health. A life coach uses motivational techniques to help someone accomplish goals that are unique to them and their aspirations. A person would go to a life coach for guidance in establishing more meaning in their life.

So here's the deal. How often do you say things like, "suck it up" and "rub some dirt on it" when things get tough? What are you hoping to gain from avoiding the truth that brought you to say those things? Do you have a young person at home who is bottling feelings? Are YOU bottling your feelings? That's the real issue, how you deal with life's roadblocks and speed bumps, not whether or not the...

The common thread of life is humanity because we face similar everyday problems. Our daily lives are over-saturated, which then cause us to become overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or lonely. There appears to be less time spent with family, friends, and doing meaningful activities & more time working and getting by each day. Having a therapist who is compassionate, authentic, and willing to list...
