A coach can provide a helping hand
Coaching helps you focus on health, set goals and define
strategies. Good coaching encourages personal development as
you learn how to cope with health problems.
Therapeutic Coaching does not attempt to diagnose or treat
mental illness. Instead, it explores what you want; and identifies
your challenges or blocks that prevent you healing yourself. We
coach you to define healthy goals and to overcome obstacles
that prevent you fulfilling your goals.
Systemic Coaching can help you prevent chronic mental disease,
help you deal with the challenges of chronic disease, and help
you resolve the symptoms of chronic disease. Coaching also
provides you with emotional support during difficult times; and
helps you help your friends or family members to complete
their lives peacefully.
Recognizable sets of symptoms are called diseases. A mental
health disease interferes with normal day-to-day function of
living. Mental diseases may be primarily existential (e.g. nonstop or all-of-life), contextual (e.g. only with certain triggers,
such as toxins or allergens) or systemic (only within a certain
human relationship system, such as a family or team).
Coaching is not medicine, psychotherapy nor counseling.
Systemic Coaching integrates systems thinking, success
coaching and health coaching with expert modeling.
