Why choose Life Coaching and what are the benefits?

My Health Assistant06 Jul, 2023Health

The aim of Life Coaching is to help the client move forward in life and achieve their personal goals. According to educational psychologists Vygotsky and Bruner, clients can improve from where they are at present to where they want to be by being scaffolded by a Life Coach. This is known as the zone of proximal development. Life Coaching by definition is a relationship between the coach and the client, which encourages growth and achievement. Coaching is not therapy or counselling, but it is a space that allows the client to explore available options, gain clarity and self-awareness to move towards achieving their personal goals. It uses positive psychological techniques to harness a client?s own personal qualities and resources. Coaching focuses on a client?s own personal qualities, skills and resources and cultivates the client?s own ability to solve problems and find solutions.
