NLThe most help I've received so far I've been to therapy in a few different clinics. HG Coaching was by far the best experience I've had in terms of mental health support. I got better at recognizing and process my emotions in a healthier way. It helped me break some thought and behavioral patterns (e.g. causational, judgemental, black & white thinking) and better align my actions with my goals. I got better at checking in with myself and making a conscious decision about what it's important for me. I learned about praise and forgiveness. I learned about how to listen to others. I got better at celebrating the small victories (and encouraging others to do the same) and not let setbacks deter me from pursuing my goals. Overall, there isn't an aspect of my life that hasn't improved due to coaching. It's not for everyone and it's important that you find a coach that's a good match for you. If something doesn't feel right, speak up early and they'll be happy to help you out.

GBHigh Quality Coaching and Strong Sub-clinical Service My coach was excellent. I found myself regularly rating her pretty highly on the post-evaluation surveys. I signed up for Career Coaching and found myself focusing on career-adjacent matters 30% of the time and the rest of the time talking about things that could probably be topics for therapists. That said, I feel like I had some conversations better than what I've had with therapists in the past (i.e. conversations that actually felt like they led to me taking productive action to address the things that caused me problems). I'm probably going to switch to therapy after my last coaching session in a couple weeks, but I feel like I will be able to make better use of that time for reaching my goals now.

GBdo not recommend. Could be a money scam. Overall, it did not help me. Coaches are 100% hit or miss and theres no screening process for clients to try their coaches. Why am I paying upwards of $50 a session to talk to an unqualified individual who is supposed to help me understand and resolve my issues? More details on the coaching experience I received: 2020: I received 8 free personal coaching lessons from a coach "in training". The coach did not particularly add anything useful in helping me explore my issues. However, they did validate my emotions. 2022: I received 8 weeks of free career coaching (per their pilot program). I think this coach was decent because he was actually trained and he seemed competent. The problem was that I couldn't do the things he wanted to me to do. 2023: I paid for 8 weeks of personal coaching with someone who should've been trained. He seemed smart. The problem is that he wasn't helpful at all. I felt that he didn't care to try to help me with my issues. Like, I had to lead the conversations and do all the work. It was not worth it. A complete miss on Healthy Gamer's side.

GBJust a really disappointing experience I did more than 20 weeks of group coaching. Nobody can say that I didn’t give it a fair shake. The problem with advertising group coaching to a bunch of socially inept and professionally inexperienced people is that you then have a group full of those people. Attendance was spotty, the coaches were pretty hands-off for the most part, and while 20 weeks seems like a lot of time, it’s really not much when you have 7 people who all want to tackle their biggest challenges and insecurities. Save your money for a decent therapist.

LTAmazing experience Speaking from my personal experience, even the first session with Coach Lam completely changed my life. I'm so much happier now than before. I've discovered a new hobby that really fuels my day-to-day life. Coach Lam really knows how to ask the right questions. Thank you once again.
