Life coaching is a personalized support system that helps individuals clarify goals, develop action plans, and navigate challenges. Coaches employ effective communication and active listening to assist clients in overcoming obstacles, unlocking their potential, and achieving personal growth for a more fulfilling life.
In life coaching, our coaches utilize diverse therapeutic techniques that are tailored to individuals, including cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, mindfulness, and positive psychology approaches. They also utilize active listening and empathetic communication to provide a supportive space for you to explore and achieve personal goals and overcome challenges, fostering personal growth and clarity.
The number of life coaching sessions someone attends can differ based on the coach and the client’s choices. How many sessions are needed and how often they occur often hinges on the client’s objectives and the complexity of their concerns. Some clients might opt for a few sessions to tackle particular goals or issues, while others may decide on ongoing coaching sessions to work on personal growth and life enhancement over a more extended period of time. Thriveworks Colorado Springs therapists work with clients to create goals and potential timelines for treatment.

What Is Life Coaching?
Life coaching is a new method meant to get the most out of life, and it differs slightly than counseling. The key difference between counseling and coaching is that counseling is meant to heal whereas life coaching is meant to conquer. A good analogy is athletics: when a runner pulls her hamstring, she rests, applies ice, and maybe goes to physical therapy. This is akin to counseling; when someone’s heart and mind have been scarred or stretched to maximum capacity for various reason, it could cause further damage to make a big change in their life.
Some dilemmas that may call for life coaching are:
- Wanting to find happiness in work (thinking of taking a big career jump or in need of career counseling)
- Confused about a relationship (recent relationship change, deciding if you should end or start a relationship)
- Stressed about a newborn or a new family member (wanting help parenting an adopted child)
- Wondering how to deal with a deployment of a family member
- Many, many more dilemmas that occur in this crazy thing called life
