Teen Life Coaching

Discover Your Strengths

Reach Your Potential

Feeling stressed, stuck or unsure about your future?

Life as a teen isn’t always easy. There’s a lot going on—school, friends, family, social media, and trying to figure out who you are and what you want. It can feel overwhelming, and sometimes you just need a space to talk things through.

Coaching gives you a space that’s just for you—no pressure, no judgment. Together, we’ll work through what’s getting in the way, figure out what matters to you, and help you build confidence, self-awareness, and the tools to handle life’s ups and downs.

You don’t need to have it all figured out.
Coaching is here to help you feel more in control, more connected, and more like yourself.

FAQs

Isn’t Life Coaching only for adults?

Life coaching was once primarily sought by adults needing guidance for career changes or other life challenges. However, today’s life coaches serve a more diverse audience, with a growing number of teens seeking their services in recent years.

According to the 2017 Global Consumer Awareness Survey by the International Coaching Federation (ICF), 35% of Generation Z participants reported having received life coaching. This trend highlights the increasing popularity of life coaching among teens.

Teen life coaches are specifically trained to work with this age group. Just as adults seek guidance for various life challenges, teens benefit from coaching to develop the skills necessary to become independent, confident, and productive members of society.

How do I know if my child needs counselling or coaching?

You don’t need to have it all figured out before we begin. In our initial conversation, we’ll explore your child’s needs together and determine the most supportive approach. If it’s not immediately clear whether counselling or coaching is the better fit, that’s completely okay — I often integrate elements of both.

Sessions are always tailored to your child’s unique strengths, challenges, and goals. Rather than forcing a specific path, we allow your child to guide the process, ensuring the support they receive is meaningful, flexible, and truly effective.

How long and how often does my child need to work with you?

I offer various coaching packages tailored to your needs, ranging from 6 weeks to 4 months, with sessions lasting between 45 to 60 minutes.

Teen Life Coaching:

  • First Month: Weekly sessions
  • Second Month: Three sessions followed by a break
  • Third Month: Bi-weekly sessions
  • Additional Months: Typically 2-3 sessions per month

Family Coaching: Typically lasts between 4 to 8 weeks.

Additionally, I offer one-off coaching sessions designed to help identify and overcome specific barriers.

How do I pay?

Coaching is paid either per program or per months. We will discuss the different payment options and identify what works best for you. I accept e-transfer, wire or PayPal.

Are sessions online or in-person?

Teen Life Coaching sessions are usually online, unless your teen would prefer to see me in person. Online sessions are more flexible for your teen as they can be in the comfort of their home without needing to spend time getting to and from the sessions.

What is the right age for Teen Life Coaching?

Coaching sessions are best suited for teens and young adults, ranging from 13 to 24 years of age.
