I've had lots of my own therapy and coaching, so I know very well what it's like to be looking for someone: I hope you find good help! Learning acceptance, how to focus on the here and now, and how to process emotions are what have helped me the most in my own life, so this is what I focus on.
Hello! I'm a psychologist and a certified life coach, and I love working with clients who prefer an active, direct, practical, and instructive approach that includes learning some tools that you can apply on your own. My clients describe me as curious, gentle, kind, and calm, but also challenging when that's helpful. They say that after some time working with me, they can hear my voice during difficult times, reminding them of what we have talked about. Ideally, I know my clients so well that sometimes we can laugh together about what's happening.

The outcome is a transformative shift where you will finally live the life you've been working towards – a life filled with happiness, fulfillment, and personal growth.
Feeling anxious and overwhelmed seems to be a part of everyday life these days for some, but it doesn’t have to. As women, we can find ourselves facing obstacles such as low self-esteem, lack of confidence or just simply forgetting those things that made us happy because we’ve been so focused on others. Wanting to feel more in control and living a more fulfilled life, is truly possible.

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.
