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 Grand Rapids Charter Township, MI 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 Grand Rapids Charter Township therapists work with clients to create goals and potential timelines for treatment.

Need more help deciding?

The reality of our modern lives is that there are struggles we all face. Although, the particulars of those challenges are determined by the situation you find yourself in, there are common hardships that affect us all. Whether you are a pilot, a manager, a chef or a musician, you share a common set of difficulties.

Some of the most common trials we face are finding a balance between the necessities of work and the need for leisure, overcoming self-doubt to pursue our dreams, and developing and maintaining good relationships. These are some of the most common of life’s hardships and a life coach may well be able to help you to not only overcome these but to find self-confidence and happiness. Work with a Grand Rapids Life Coach today.

What Life Coaching Can Do For You

Home and work are the two places that we spend most of our time, and if there is any conflict in either of these places it cannot help but influence other aspects of our life. This means that harmony in these spaces is essential to a happy life, and there are many ways to achieve this. A professional life coach can offer guidance in this area, and help you to assess what is most important to you, and vitally, why. This may seem a simple thing, but understanding the root cause of your desires and obstacles helps to understand yourself. This self-awareness then enables you to establish new, healthier patterns of thought and behavior. A life coach can help you with:

  • Ascertaining what your priorities are and the reasons behind them
  • Acquire the best ways to manage those priorities
  • Establish tactics and techniques which will help you to find happiness and balance
  • Eradicate the hindrances that prevent your growth.

In this way a life coach can help you to find balance between your work life and your home life, assist you in moving beyond paralyzing self-doubt, or help you to establish and maintain good relationships.

I am loving Thriveworks not only for the convenience of virtual appointments, but this is the first place I’ve tried that has actually helped. My therapist is incredibly kind and helpful and is amazing at helping me with any issues I’m struggling with. They paired me with a therapist that is experienced in the specific areas I needed help with, and it has been wonderful. I would absolutely recommend Thriveworks!

My son saw Denise for the first time recently and she was great. She seemed very well informed in every area and so willing to help my son with his anxiety. She actually spent time with us and seemed to care. I'm so glad we found her.

I was in need of a psychiatrist for chronic depression and anxiety. I came across thrive having only a 4 month wait instead 9 to 12 month wait with any other psychiatrist. This was wonderful news. I met Denise as my clinician. She is very empathetic very knowledgeable. She has helped me alot sine my first vist. She is very dedicated to her patients which I truly appreciate. I would highly recommend her for any psychiatric needs. I think she goes above and beyond her role. She is a caring individual. There should be more people like Denise. She needs to be recognized for her work.
