Life coaching greatly benefits those who have separated from their partner; have been made redundant; relocated to a new area or just simply want a change of direction and don’t know where to begin, I help people to achieve that change in a positive, professional and friendly manner.
Personal values, personal successes, motivation, personal goals, empowerment and self-esteem are worked on in great detail, as these are areas which generally need working on towards a positive change of direction.
Life Coaching versus Counselling:
Some definitions of ‘counselling’ state it is only concerned with a person’s past life and not rooted and concerned in where that person is heading in their life today. A description of ‘life coaching’ could say that is grounded entirely in the present and only looking forward with no concern with the past. Therefore, life coaching differs from counselling in that it is mainly focused on the present and the future. It may well be necessary to look back to find the cause of some obstructive thinking patterns and then help to get to the bottom of them, but then we return back to the “where are we now?” and the “where do we want to go?”.
Life coaches do not tell clients what to do. Some counsellors focus on the exploration of painful past experiences in their sessions with clients. By contrast, most life coaches work in a practical way helping clients to move forward, focusing first and foremost on how to create a more positive future rather than delving into a painful or emotional past.
Life coaches focus on getting results and on clarifying and achieving the outcomes their clients want. Counsellors are sometimes more concerned with establishing why people feel the way they do. However, a concern with trying to find out ‘why’ can be a symptom of depression or anxiety rather than a route to the resolution of it.
