Life Coaching over Instant Messenger (IM) or eMail

Life can get pretty busy. Being busy is one of the main reasons people don't get started working towards their goals. Connecting with a life coach over the web can mean:

  • less interruptions to your day
  • getting help on your own terms
  • meet from the privacy of your home
  • no commuting time
  • meet at hours outside normal 'business hours'

How It Works

Life Coaching over IM or via eMail is quite similar. The interaction happens in either real time through instant messaging on a prescheduled date/time or via an exchange of emails.

Why 'Life Coaching'?

Life Coaching is similar to but different than psychotherapy. Life coaching techniques are often used within psychotherapy. However, life coaching at Intraspectus does not address specific psychiatric conditions. Rather, we are proactive in identifying goals, as well as approaches and techniques to meet those goals.

Life coaching can be valuable for people looking to make a transition in their career, family or personal relationships. To use a comparison, life coaching is more like using a personal trainer at the gym to strengthen your muscles whereas psychotherapy is more like going to physical therapy to treat a specific condition. Both are tremendously helpful. Both are there for different occasions. While a physical therapist could work as both trainer or therapist, a personal trainer does not work as a therapist. This is the same in psychotherapy.
