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 Washington, D.C. 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 Washington therapists work with clients to create goals and potential timelines for treatment.

Why Work with a Life Coach?

Life coaching extends beyond the realm of sports, offering benefits to individuals in various aspects of their lives. Here are some reasons people work with a life coach:

  • Achieving Goals: Whether it’s a personal milestone like running a race or a professional goal like securing a promotion, life coaches help plan the best path towards these achievements.
  • Navigating Challenges: Life can change unexpectedly. Life coaches provide strategies and support for dealing with major changes like job loss, divorce, or medical diagnoses.

The life coaches at Thriveworks Washington, DC have extensive experience helping clients achieve their goals and navigate life’s challenges. We provide the accountability, support, and encouragement needed for success.

The Benefits of Goal-Setting

Setting goals can lead to a more driven and meaningful life. Research shows that people who regularly set personal and professional goals tend to be happier and more successful. Benefits of goal-setting include:

Auto accident caused my Traumatic Brain Injury, PTSD, loosing sight in one eye.... just the beginning of injuries I incurred. I clicked with Stephanie. Her beautiful spirt is equaled by her high intelligence. She took the time to learn what happened to me and what my triggers were, and the overall emotional state I was in. I truly felt that she cared about me as a person and wanted to see me recover after my life was shattered. When I began therapy with her, I honestly wasn't sure if I could recover. I thought my life was over and there couldn't be a way to recover, then I began sessions with her. Now I have hope in my future and a healthy mindset which will help me to overcome my traumatic event and live my best life. I had know idea a transformation was possible before meeting Stephanie, but she showed me it was very much possible. I worked hard with her to heal. I worked with other therapists/psychiatrists before finding Stephanie, and she is different. I truly felt that she listened to me.. she genuinely cared about my mental health.. I'm so very grateful for all she's done for me. Saying "Thank you" seems so inadequate, but it's what I can say to her. Stephanie-- from the bottom of my heart, I'm so humbly grateful for you and what you've helped me through. May all that's good in this world come back to you ten-fold!!

I’ve been doing Zoom calls with Cody for over 6 months now and I have to say he’s the best therapist I’ve ever had. He’s down to earth, real, honest, and so good at pointing out my thought distortions. I’ve been through a lot lately and he’s been right there to help me the whole time. I’ve even taken to saying “everyone needs a Cody!” He works hard and cares hard and the world needs more people - and therapists! - like him.

Stacie has been a tremendous help in assisting me with managing my anxiety. She is easy to talk to, and I felt like she genuinely cared about what I am going through. I have learned some coping skills that have made a difference in how I approach life and my family. I am grateful to have found her. Stacie is like talking to an old friend, yet she has challenged me in a way that has helped me move past some issues I had been hanging onto for many years.

Nin has such a welcoming and kind demeanor that makes her easy to talk too. You will find out very quickly she genuinely cares about you as a person, and is able to show empathy towards you that makes you feel heard, listened to, and understood. You rarely see her without a big smile on her face and her energy is contagious.
