Many folks drawn to coaching also struggle with their mental health in some way. Oftentimes, we work with young adults whose anxiety, depression, and/or past substance abuse or related concerns are getting in the way of meeting life’s everyday demands. Coaching, in it's purest and most effective form, is really about helping individuals determine and reach their own goals by utilizing proven tools and strategies for creating lasting change together.
Though clinically informed, we cannot and do not diagnose, pathologize or treat a set of symptoms. Rather, we meet individuals where they are and provide insight into what is possible by helping them discover their own ways through from a strengths-based perspective.
Our model is fundamentally rooted in open communication, always including ancillary providers such as therapists, psychiatrists, nutritionists, neurofeedback providers as well as family members and other natural supports. All folks involved in a person’s care are connected weekly through a coaching update. This update, addressed to the young adult, names current goals, actions taken and progress made toward those goals over the past week. The update is more than information, it’s also an invitation; an invitation to a supportive conversation to further support the participant toward becoming the version of themselves they are working to be.
It takes a village to effectively support an individual seeking help and we witness our model as one that consistently works in this way. We deeply value our collaborative approach to coaching and see stronger and longer-lasting outcomes as a result.
