Here to help you understand yourself I think the best way to sum it up is that your coach is like a supporting role to your main character in a movie; they're not there to lead your healing journey, they simply offer a new perspective. Your path is yours alone to walk, but talking it out and reassessing your stance with a fresh set of eyes can often be the change you require to get unstuck.

The Power of Questions! The 20 week coaching program with Healthy Gamer really helped me better understand my own internal state and thought patterns. Even though the coaches are not medical professionals, the simple act of asking thoughtful questions every week encouraged me to think more about my emotions and become more aware of when certain emotions arise. I can confidently say that I have a better understanding of myself after the 20 weeks and I feel more empowered in how to keep going forward and keep learning more about myself.

Be honest. The coach I had was a wonderful listener and helped filter out what to focus on more. She also does a great job in putting my feelings and thoughts into sentences. If you are planning to continue your coaching sessions, I recommend just being open and honest about your thoughts and feelings. The root of the problem will be discovered faster. Since my coach was able to understand what I am going through, the feedback really helps me.

Put in the work, get results I completed 20 sessions of 1-on-1 coaching, after trying group coaching out for about 4 sessions. I really enjoyed my experience with my coach! Coaching isn't the fix to all of your problems but can really help you navigate challenges. I stuck with the same coach for my entire duration, & I preferred this experience much more in comparison to my years of traditional psychotherapy where I'd be circling around the same problems and never really reaching any of my goals. I highly recommend, but would like to note that your coach is mostly there to encourage you to put the work in yourself that way you can navigate your issues on your own. You have to be willing to work on yourself and separate from your ego.

My Best Mental Health Journey Yet I have tried several different professional mental health settings, but I have just completed my 20th session of one-on-one coaching and plan on signing up for more. I am not mental health expert, but I do believe that what Dr. K has created here is more directly and specifically addressing the mental health crisis, especially among young men. I cannot speak for experiences with this service outside of that demographic, but my coach has challenged and inspired me in areas where other mental health settings have left me disappointed and jaded. I also consider the sessions to be relatively affordable, though prepare to pay out of pocket. I also cannot speak for the group coaching, but if you are on the fence about one-on-one coaching I recommend you try it out, their billing department has always been communicative and helpful.
