Life coach Covington Louisiana

  • Anyone and everyone is right for coaching!

  • In a coaching session, a client can expect a warm greeting followed by a conversation led by the client. The coach will ask thoughtful questions and surmise the goal of the session.

  • The difference between a life coach & a therapist is that a life coach sets clients up with short & long-term solutions for positive growth. Through life coaching, a client works with a coach to clarify goals, identify obstacles, & problematic behaviors & then create action plans to achieve desired results.

    The process of life coaching takes the client’s current starting point as an acceptable neutral ground & is more action-based from that point onward. A life coach enables the recipient to take control of their life and take action to steer it toward their goals.

  • Dr. Amber covers a wide range of issues and types of coaching. She specializes in leadership, sex coaching, and ADHD and ASD coaching for women.

    General life coaching focuses on anything: from working on grief, life transitions, or wedding planning to spirituality, parenting, or anxiety.

  • Unfortunately, life coaching is not covered by health insurance.

Dr. Amber will also guide you on how best to improve your skills & meet the needs of your "followers". Lastly, Dr. Amber believes in the power of soft people skills that can help every leader propel forward.

  • Dr. Amber will help you succeed at incorporating a manageable "work-life" balance while fulfilling your dream.

Together, you & Dr. Amber will work on schedules & time management, discover where outside help might be needed, & put aside that need for perfection in yourself and others.
