Cognitive behavioral life coaching can be a practical and accessible process that leads to lasting, profound change and maybe finding a little more balance in your day to day life and your overall self-narrative. My goal is to help support you in getting in touch with your inner healing instinct. You can take over where we leave off in session. Finding balance in mental health is like learning a language with which to process and make meaning of life on planet Earth- YOUR life. Coaching can be a way of learning and practicing this language. Using what you learn in session and applying it as best you can in your daily life will help you become more fluent- but fluent doesn't mean perfect. Fluent means you know enough to learn more. In other words, there is no cure for not speaking a language- you just keep practicing it until you can do with it what it is you would like to do with it as fluently as you’re able. Cognitive behavioral life coaching can be approached similarly. With fluency, we can start to integrate the experiences of our sessions together, laying the foundation for lasting, positive change. This means you becoming more fluent with yourself- in the deepest sense. Your Self. We can expect fluency to unfold and expand over time with consistent practice and engagement. When you’re finding yourself more in touch and in balance with your Self, we’ll set some goals to work on at home on your own. When things become difficult to process, then by all means, let’s catch up and see what else there may be to learn together. Find support when you find yourself unable to make sense of it on your own.
