Each of us has inherent dignity and worth, and the capacity and freedom to live a meaningful and integrated life.
Do you sometimes feel torn between a part of you that wants one thing and another that wants the opposite? Like a part that wants to be fit and healthy and another one that can’t stop eating? Or a part that does, feels or thinks in a way that another part says you shouldn’t, so another part feels guilty about it? Say a procrastinating part that leaves important tasks till the last moment, a self-critical part that beats down the procrastinating part, and a “there’s something wrong with me” part that feels a terrible sense of shame? The good news is that we are more than just the sum of our parts! Our innermost self is greater!

Each person is unique, and even though we all have similar needs in life, our life experiences can affect how we perceive ourselves, other people and our situations.
By getting to know you, a counsellor can point out patterns of thinking that might be stopping you from seeing all sides of a situation clearly. Sometimes, to make life a little bit easier, all you need to do is become aware of a problem that you might not have seen before.

Life Coaching Counsellors
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
