What is coaching?

Life coaching is a way of discovering your strengths, core values, and future aspirations. It stems from positive psychology and helps to bridge the gap between practice and science. The aim of using positive psychology (coaching) is to help increase an individual's overall well-being and promote healthy self-regulation. The question becomes “what does a valuable life look like in the eyes of my client and how can this be achieved?” instead of “what is the problem of my client and how can this problem be solved?” Coaching is an essential step that I believe needs to take place before ending your counseling experience. It brings awareness of who you really are and the true desires that you seek to make your life most fulfilling. Therefore, increasing your self-concept and self-esteem.
