Looking for a Life Coach in the U.K.?
Published on April 8, 2010
Often I’m contacted by businesses looking to promote their services and this time it’s from a company in the United Kingdom called Life Coach Directory. As the name implies, the site provides services by Life Coaches who have expertise in different areas of life where they are specialized…or I guess that would be specialised for my U.K. readers :)
To better understand the concept, here’s how the site describes things:
A life coach is an individual who supports and encourages people to fulfil their potential and really make the most of their life. A life coach can help to empower individuals to take control of their life, or certain areas of their life, for example, their career, confidence/self belief, finances, health, relationships, spirituality and/or work/life balance.
It can be easy to lose direction in our lives and life coaching aims to explore ways to enhance the skills, qualities and creativity we already have but may not be making the most of. Life coaching often involves exploring our attitudes, beliefs and values, discussing our aims in life and setting appropriate goals to help us to reach them. Unlike trying to achieve goals on our own, having a life coach should help to keep us committed, motivated and focussed. Just like sports men and women have their own coach, a life coach helps us to become the best we can be in our own lives.
The life coaches can also register with professional bodies so that those selecting these coaches can have confidence they will be working with professionals operating within strict guidelines and ethics (see their FAQ for more on this). The site also has information about various types of distress that life coaching can help, as well as a blog about the latest health news.
The site breaks its life coaches down into areas of expertise:
- Career
- Confidence/Self-Belief
- Finances/Money
- Health
- Relationships
- Spirituality
- Business
- Stress
- Work/Life Balance
I don’t know what a life coach would cost but I do know this: most advice on the internet is generic because the people offering the advice don’t know the reader on a personal level. The advice can be good but it is often not as personal as someone might like. A Life Coach could solve this problem but then again sometimes a good friend could do the same! Still, the site is worth a look and I’m sure some people would find value in a service like this.
