MENTAL HEALTH COACHING
Coaching is a type of counseling partnership for people who want a general improvement in their quality of life and/or for those who are goal-oriented and want to achieve certain objectives. It's useful when you feel that you want more from life and need to understand what steps are required to achieve your aimed goals. Coaching will guide you to identify the obstacles that have limited your potential and provide you with the resolution strategies so you can achieve your goals. Coaching can also be very helpful with maintaining an optimal level of motivation in order for you to have all the energy to achieve what you desire in the long run.
* It is important to keep in mind that coaching is not a psychotherapeutic method and is not meant for people with psychological conditions. You can opt instead for PSYCHOTHERAPY or HYPNOTHERAPY
Mental Health Coaching is a service intended for people who, once they have finished the psychotherapeutic process, want to add small improvements and consolidate the obtained results.
Some examples:
- when you've already learned to take care of yourself but still need a suportive environment to practice your newly developed skill set
- if you notice that you still cannot maintain constantly your recently learned healthy behaviors
- when you need to manage new situations that have appeared in your life after the end of psychotherapy and negatively influence your well-being
Another category that greatly benefits from the services of Mental Health Coaching are people who want a general improvement in their mental health or those who are interested in acquiring new sets of soft skills to reach some precise goals.

Recommendation PRO
Take a few moments to do a quick self-check in situations where you suspect you have been exposed to manipulative techniques. Notice your reactions and how it made you feel. Then ask yourself the following question: "Is my behavior of an Adult person (in control, able to express my opinions), or am I responding like a Child (submissive, eager to please and receive praise and validation) ? For manipulation to be effective the manipulator must infantilize his victim. Pay attention to this phenomenon and keep the discussion at the Adult level.
