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 Chicago, IL 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 Chicago therapists work with clients to create goals and potential timelines for treatment.

  • Career: Where and how can you put your talents to use in the work world? What environments spur your creativity and can sustain work for a lifetime? What would fulfilling, satisfying work look like to you?
  • Fun: How are you energized and restored? What or who makes you smile? When can you take a deep breath and relax? What would it look like to prioritize fun?
  • Family: Who is your family? What do you want your family to be like? What kind of relationships can you cultivate with your partner, spouse, siblings, parents, children, in-laws?
