Mental health coaching helps clients to explore their mental health and how it may be impacting their life as they show up today. This type of coaching is not about healing or processing past traumas, but rather about exploring the path clients have walked to get to where they are and what they need to consider for their future. Together you will uncover your attitudes to well-being and self-care, explore where these may be impacting your growth, performance and potential, and use coaching psychology to help you make withstanding mental health changes.
Clients who come to mental health coaching are often stressed, burning out and struggling but are not in an emotional crisis. Working with Verity will help you on your unique journey.
