Hiring a coach was the best investment I’ve ever made
&gt; Therapy examines your past and helps you diagnose your problems, she told me. Coaching focuses on the present and future — and helps you get from where you are to where you want to be.<p>And this is where I stopped taking it seriously. Modern therapy hardly examines your past. A good therapist these days will quickly find the actual problem you&#x27;re having (which is generally not the problem you <i>think</i> you&#x27;re having) and then steer you towards cognitive behavioural therapy(CBT) which is <i>all</i> about the present and the future.<p>This article smells like new age woo trying to present itself as better than <i>actual therapy</i>, with it meanwhile being strictly less effective.<p>Please, if you feel like therapy could help you (and basically anyone would be helped by therapy) don&#x27;t fall for this sort of nonsense, but find an actual good therapist.
