This page describes how you can benefit from a Chicago Psychology Group Personal Life Coach in Chicago, Illinois. A life coach will collaborate with you to help clarify for goals for the future, and make concrete plans to realize those goals.

That may sound simple enough but the plain truth is that each of us has a limited view of the world. We have to; it’s simply economical. But that also means that each of us has limited choices available to us. The benefit of a life coach is having someone with a unique outside perspective and an entirely different set of available choices. You find a life coach in order to have someone who can see the options that you just can’t see.

The problem that often occurs with life coaching is that life coaches are not required to hold any kind of mental health qualifications. That may sound fine to you if you have no major mental health issues. But the problem is that each and every one of us has invisible barriers holding us back from being our best. We are all giants raised by midgets, all walking around with a perpetual mental crouch.

When you train to be a psychologist, you have to spend an entire year as a psychodiagnostic resident, which means that your entire job is to figure people out. You gain an immense set of tools and practical knowledge about the invisible barriers that stand between otherwise highly capable individuals and their dreams. Then, in your next year of psychological training, you spend a year of clinical residency learning how to help real people to overcome those very barriers. Most life coaches have never had these invaluable training experiences.

That is why we believe that every life coach should also be a fully trained mental health professional, and why every member of the Chicago Psychology Group has received this high level of training. Our personal life coaches will not only help you to plan for your goals, but also to overcome both the external and the internal barriers to achieving them.
