Life Coach Certificate

🔍What is a Life Coach?

A Life Coach is someone who counsels and encourages clients through personal or professional challenges. They help guide clients to reach their ultimate goals. They help their clients figure out how to be their best selves – whatever that means to each person.

Specifically, Life Coaches serve as guides through various aspects of your life, focus on personal growth and development, facilitate identifying and achieving goals, behavior changes, shifting perspectives, and overall self-improvement, help you improve your physical health, emotional well-being and overall wellness, and focus on sustainable, behavior changes rooted in positive psychology.  But, they are not therapists. Therapists have education and license requirements to practice with clients. Therapists help you to understand your psychological patterns to change behavior. Therapists can diagnose and treat mental health needs.

By earning this Life Coach Certificate, you gain the knowledge and skills necessary to support and mentor other young girls, women and other marginalized groups disproportionately impacted by Gender-based Violence (GBV).
