Youth Coaching (Tweens, Teens, and Young Adults)
Coaching that implements the “I can do anything” mindset.
I help teens, tweens, and young adults develop the mindset and confidence that they can do anything, solve anything, and be anyone. A lot goes on in their world that they need help navigating and oftentimes they feel alone with their problems. Life coaching can be a powerful tool for helping teens navigate the challenges and transitions of adolescence, and develop the skills and resilience necessary to thrive in the years ahead.
I coach and provide support on a variety of topics including…
embarrassment
COVID isolation
struggles in school
getting along with parents
resilience
problem-solving
removing false beliefs about themselves
setting up a support structure outside of friends
removing blocks on succeeding
achieving a goal/dream
choosing a college
career paths
ADHD support
friend exclusion
academic challenges
low self esteem
social Issues
peer pressure
fitting in
stress
relationships
anxiety and overwhelm
lack of motivation
fear of failure
bullying
and so much more
Benefits of life coaching for teens include:
Improved self-awareness: Life coaching can help teens gain a better understanding of themselves, their strengths and weaknesses, and their values and beliefs. This increased self-awareness can help them make more informed decisions and set more meaningful goals.
Enhanced confidence and self-esteem: Life coaching can help teens build confidence and self-esteem by providing them with a safe space to explore their thoughts and feelings, and by helping them identify and celebrate their strengths and accomplishments.
Developing better communication skills: Life coaching can help teens improve their communication skills by teaching them how to express themselves effectively and assertively, and by helping them learn to listen actively and empathetically to others.
Goal setting and achievement: Life coaching can help teens identify and set achievable goals, and develop strategies to achieve them. This can help them develop a sense of purpose and direction, and build the resilience and persistence necessary to overcome obstacles and setbacks.
Reduced stress and anxiety: Life coaching can help teens learn strategies for managing stress and anxiety, such as mindfulness and relaxation techniques, and help them develop healthy coping mechanisms for dealing with difficult emotions and situations.
Improved relationships: Life coaching can help teens develop stronger and more positive relationships with family, friends, and peers by teaching them effective communication skills, conflict resolution strategies, and empathy and compassion.
All teens are wise. They’ve just forgotten how to listen to their own voice because the world keeps telling them who they need to be. But the world has forgotten that they were born exactly who they were supposed to be.
