What is Personal Coaching?

In the same way that athletic coaches help their athletes to become the best players they can be, this same philosophy applies to the lives of people in general. Every person has short- and long-term goals that they would like to accomplish in their personal lives, work, artistic, and/or athletic careers. Personal goals often become overlooked and then forgotten because people lack “know how” and a credible coach to help them reach their goals. Parents, teachers, and even counselors who try to help are often overwhelmed with too many duties, students, and/or clients. Some helpers also lack the knowledge, abilities, and techniques needed to assist individuals with certain issues and concerns. At the same time, athletes’ goals are not always reached because athletic coaches cannot give enough individual attention to all players. Basically, some people and athletes get overlooked and never reach their full potential as individuals and in what they want to do. Therefore, having a personal life coach who is knowledgeable, credible, goal-oriented, and helps you develop and execute your own specialized program can be the difference between letting problems and difficulties take you down or successfully achieving your goals through a solution-focused, holistic approach.

Why Use Personal Coaching Instead of Traditional Counseling?

A true holistic (mind-body-spirit) approach to personal excellence involves dynamic concepts and exercises that are seldom promoted in traditional counseling; furthermore, peak performance training, athlete-related issues, and reprogramming limiting behaviors and thinking patterns require specialized expertise. Utilizing these empowering ideas and exercises enables clients to overcome many difficulties in the same way that turning on a light dissolves darkness in any room. Consistent use of these special strategies has resulted in success that many people did not think was possible. Most importantly, the pursuit and teaching of holistic excellence must be part of the practitioner’s belief system and personal practices for it to be truly effective. 

Although the current medical model practice of identifying illness by diagnosing mental health issues can be a positive step in treatment, clients often benefit greatly from services that support a wellness model and view people as being temporarily “stuck” (instead of sick) and in need of assistance in overcoming or changing some aspects of the self. Choosing cash payment life coaching/counseling provides an excellent option because clients receive quality care, expertise, and affordable services that do not involve insurance companies, which require diagnoses and records than can remain indefinitely, and in some cases, even compromise privacy and confidentiality. 

Through his use of a holistic approach to peak performance, health and wellness, stress reduction, energy and trauma management, and excellence in both personal and athletic areas of life during and since his career as an elite-level athlete, Dr. Nick Pappas has gained important insights and techniques for achieving personal, athletic, and professional goals of all kinds. Best of all, this higher awareness and information provides clients with an array of powerful strategies, tools, and skills that help to increase overall health, healing, and wholeness on the way to achieving greater levels of excellence in all areas of life.
