My Approach
....and philosophy
There are many definitions of life coaching but one that resonates with me is that life coaching helps people tap into their inner purpose and passion, set achievable goals and action plans to bring about extraordinary and sustainable results.
There are two main characteristics of life coaching: One is that it directs its attention toward the individual’s strengths and their preferred future instead of their past problems and deficits. The key question is: “What is a person’s desirable life and how can it be achieved?”.
The second characteristic is, the unwavering belief in each person’s potential to live the life they desire, achieve their goals and reach their full potentials. In this sense, each person is the expert of their life, the life coach role is to help the person to move closer to the desired direction.
Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy evolved from the work of psychotherapist Albert Ellis in the mid-1950s as the original form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Ellis believed that most people are not aware that many of their thoughts about themselves are irrational and negatively affect the way they behave in important relationships and situations. According to Ellis, it is these thoughts that lead people to suffer negative emotions and engage in self-destructive behavior. At the same time, humans are capable of challenging and changing their irrational beliefs, if they are willing to do the work – practice the techniques. While specific life events may contribute to mental health issues, REBT therapists and life coaches believe that it is an individual’s own irrational belief system that causes most of the problems.
By letting go of irrational, unhealthy thoughts and replacing them with more rational, healthy beliefs, one is better able to accept one’s self and others and, in turn, live a happier life.
Metaphysical Counselling is an holistic approach to counselling based on spiritual principles. It embraces the mind-body-spirit connection and therefore has an integrative approach to how we understand life and solve our challenges.
I believe that the solution to our problems is within each of us. Each one of us has the ability to influence, shape and change one’s own life experience.
Metaphysical counselling aims to balance the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimension in order to bring increased harmony and sense of wellbeing.
Metaphysical counsellors may use different approaches based on their area of specialization.
In metaphysical counselling universal spiritual practices may include the cultivation of self-awareness, mindfulness, self-compassion, self- kindness and forgiveness*.
I can show you how to apply a whole range of powerful techniques and spiritual principles to uncover the greater good in any challenging situation you may be experiencing.
Whether your challenges relate to your health, relationships, finances, career, or self-esteem or you simply wish to use the techniques to move beyond any limiting beliefs that have been holding you back, the Metaphysical approach can help.

*Forgiveness is never about condoning poor behaviour. Forgiveness is a self-empowerment journey in which we reprocess – and often release – emotional wounds and hurtful old memories so that we can focus our energy on our goals and wellbeing.
