Coaching
Quick Links
From an early age, there are people in our life to guide us, teach us, help us grow. From our parents, to teachers, to our sports coaches. But why did we stop getting coached? Professional athletes still get coaching and they are the best in their profession. The truth is, once you move on from sports, "coaching" becomes "counseling" and there is a negative stigma around counseling. But why?
​
​
Counseling is simply coaching for your mind. If you break a bone, you go to the doctor. Even those in good health still get a yearly checkup. Why not do the same for your mind if you feel anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, or even if you feel perfectly fine. You wouldn't wait for your check engine light to come on to change your oil, no, you change it routinely to keep the engine running smooth. Take the same precaution to prevent yourself from breaking down.
"Words of comfort, skillfully administered, are the oldest therapy known to man."
- Louis Nizer
