Life Coaching

After having moved past the worst of the struggles of social anxiety disorder, I have had an increasing inner desire to move out into the world and help people become the best that they can be. Another way I have identified of doing just that is through life coaching.

What is Life Coaching?

Life coaching is a one-on-one meeting between you and I either in person, via telephone, or via Skype. My focus is for those affected by social anxiety disorder, but I fully believe that I can help anyone. Anxiety affects all major spheres of your life - mental wellness, friendships, romantic relationships, career, health, and respect from others. As such, I am here to help you achieve all of those goals and to destroy all the barriers that come between you and your ability to live your best life! Life coaching is a bit different than you may expect in that you are the one who sets the goals, and the coach is the one who helps you identify which actions will help you achieve those goals, and what the possible outcomes of your actions might be. You are given control; you make the choices and take the actions.

Why Should I Hire a Life Coach?

Working with a life coach is a bit like racing to the top of a mountain. Most people will choose to climb it, however, having a life coach is like flying a jet to the top of it. Sure, you can do it by yourself, but using the assistance of helpful others enables you to make progress at an incredibly rapid pace! Michael Jordan had five coaches, including a shooting coach, that helped him to win six NBA championships and become the greatest modern basketball player. Tiger Woods used the help of a swing coach before he won his major championships. The point is that a coach is helpful for anyone, and there is no shame in asking for the assistance of others. Imagine what your ideal life would be like - all your dreams, goals, and ambitions, and imagine actually having them. A life coach will help you get there and move past the obstacles blocking your way at a rapid pace.

What Are Your Qualifications for Being a Life Coach? I have a Bachelor's Degree in Generalist Social Work Practice from the University of Wisconsin - Oshkosh and am currently working on a Master's Degree in Social Work at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee. Besides the theoretical knowledge, I have practical experience. I have gone from a life of total isolation, unemployability (see Causes of Anxiety: Living in the Box to learn about my employment experience in detail), depression, and despair to a life where I have a wife, many friends, a career in which I excel and am valued, and personal balance, happiness, and fulfillment. The combination of theoretical knowledge and practical application, combined with my relaxed, common sense, and down-to-earth style will make you feel at ease and moving forward in life a breeze!

How Does Life Coaching Work?

Typically, we will have a conversation over the phone (If you have Skype, that will also), although if you live in the Milwaukee area of Wisconsin, we can arrange to meet in person if that is your preference. Basically, I will focus all my energy on you and helping you to achieve your goals, whatever they are. You will explain to me what your goals are, and I will support you in attaining them. If you don't know what your goals are, I'll be happy to help you identify them. I am a very laid-back and non-judgmental person (hey - remember I suffer from social anxiety disorder after all!), and I will provide you with supportive, open, and encouraging guidance so that you can develop the wisdom and insight which will enable you to move past the obstacles holding you back from realizing your dreams. I am a thoroughly kind and enjoyable person, always looking for ways to add good to the world! Helping others is what makes me feel alive!
