Starting Life coaching

What is life coaching?

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.

How does life coaching work?

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.

Is life coaching conducted in person or online?

Life coaching with our therapists in Jersey City, NJ is conducted both in person and virtually via online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does life coaching last?

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 Jersey City therapists work with clients to create goals and potential timelines for treatment.

Need more help deciding?

Life coaches are professionals who are experts in personal transformation. Life coaching is designed to help you self-reflect and think critically about your life so you can remove your limiting beliefs and reach your full potential.

The nuances of life coaching largely depend on your goals and what you want out of life. You might discuss:

  • Ways to achieve better work-life balance
  • Major life decisions like moving to a new city or buying a house
  • How to negotiate a raise or earn a promotion
  • Goals you’d like to set for yourself
  • How to kickstart your personal growth
  • Finding the right balance between work, passions, and family time

Could you benefit from working with a life coach? Call our office at Thriveworks Counseling in Jersey City, NJ to get started. One of our team members can help you get set up with your first appointment.

Should I Reach Out to a Life Coach?

Many people seek out life coaches to help them make a change or get input on their choices, including:

  • Working professionals who want to set themselves up for a promotion
  • New parents who feel like they’re stretched too thin
  • Recent college graduates wanting to enter the workforce
  • Someone looking to find purpose in their life
  • Anyone needing input on a major life decision
  • Business leaders looking to take their mindset to the next level

Life coaches can help you achieve your personal goals, whether that’s losing weight, meeting new people, or setting up your financial future. They also specialize in helping people achieve their professional goals, like negotiating a raise or landing a promotion. Life coaches can help you determine your strengths and weaknesses, set manageable goals for your future, and make important decisions that will move your life forward.

The Benefits of Life Coaching: What To Expect

Generally, life coaches focus on helping their clients achieve their professional and personal development goals. However, individual coaching sessions may look different depending on each client’s needs and goals.

When you meet with a life coach, you might discuss what’s going on in your career, your family, your personal relationships, or your finances. Life coaches are trained to ask the right questions to uncover your concerns and help you identify what you want out of life. They can help you learn the tools, skills, and knowledge necessary to live a happy, fulfilling life.

Working with a life coach can help you achieve your goals and improve your mental health. Call our office today to start working with a personal coach from Thriveworks Counseling in Jersey City, NJ.

Talisha Harrison helped me by giving me the tools to help me navigate some difficult relationships. I also appreciate how kind, sensitive, and empathetic she was as I have been grieving a recent loss of a parent. I have also been recovering from a serious medical condition. Should I feel the need to seek counseling in the future, I would not hesitate to return to counseling with Talisha.

So far it's OK. I say ok because there is a big age difference between the therapist and myself. Maybe by 25yrs or so.

My therapist is Lesley Petersen and I have been a patient of hers for about four months now. She has been helping me through a stressful situation that I have been going through. I would recommend her because she is easy to talk to and non-judgmental.
