life coach

Square81

Hi I'm thinking about going to a life coach in the Dublin area. Does anyone have any recommendations? It's for self development/confidence building more so than career and my budget is approx 70 euro an hr, your experiences and advice would be welcome.

Please look at the sticky on How to Find a Therapist, which might be of use to you.

Hello Square81,

my advice is to go to one of the coaching bodies websites and search there for someone accredited. The one I know is the EMCC (European mentoring and couching council).http://www.emccouncil.org/ie/en/

I am hoping to work in the coaching world myself, I have a postgraduate in counseling and psychotherapy and I'd love to help you but I am not a qualified coach yet.

Good luck and let me know how you get on.

Hey Square81,
I was lately thinking about starting life coaching in Dublin city,
i'm not qualified but certainly have some knowledge about how to do it,
at the start i could do it for free just to get experience.

otherwise i'd recommend some of the NLP guys, have a look up here
http://www.nlp.ie/
i'm not sure what price range they have but they are good.

Any evidence for NLP?

I think you'll find it really doesn't have an evidence base at all.

It looks like you are one of those boring people that wouldn't try something out before criticizing, maybe you are just not smart enough to get it...or have you at last tried it? no offence! i just describe what i see, don't take it personally, i won't be responding to your posts anymore until you show that you base what you write on something called experience.

best of luck,

There is little or no evidence to support NLP as an empirically based therapy, as such, the research community has not spent much time in recent years studying it. Here is some research evidence, although it is dated, it shows NLP for what it is, pseudoscience.

Hi Square81, out of interest, did you find a coach to work with?
