The Sharps are meant to be read slowly and thoughtfully; hard-won realizations offered herein will help you achieve the quality life you deserve.
Hi! I'm Bob Beverley and I am a full-time psychotherapist who has become tired of all the self-help talk, religious jargon, academic theorizing, and new age viewpoints that show no respect for real people, their problems, and how hard their lives are. With an emphasis on wisdom, I want to help you reach your dreams, avoid some of the foolish pitfalls of life, and help you through those pitfalls if you do fall into them. I've created “The Sharp Club” for you. The club is designed to help you look after your own life so that you can be as sharp as you need to be- with yourself, for yourself, and with and for others.

Life is crazy right now. And it’s still important (maybe even more important) to take care of yourself. I’m here to help you do that. Even in the most stressful and unknown of circumstances. (hello, "post" pandemic-life, looking at YOU!). Let’s figure out how to build resilience and thrive… Give no fucks (at least about the things that don’t really matter). And find a healthy, happy balance in your life. Even when everything feels like it’s falling apart...  I help stressed & overwhelmed New Yorkers find space, clarity & calm in this crazy world. Anxiety & depression can make you feel stuck, unfulfilled, and overwhelmed.

In addition these individuals also unfortunately, but understandably, experience emotional distress associated with these difficulties. These difficulties may have had their onset in early development, through illness, as a result of injury, or developing in later adulthood. Their conditions usually impact major life roles in school, work, and relationships.

Life Coaching Therapists

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.
