I can help you ask and answer questions about yourself, your relationships, your place in the world, the nature and meaning of life, rational decision-making, effective and non-violent communication, deep introspection, personal improvement, agency empowerment, the nature of science and its relation to politics, religions, lifestyle, etc.
Philosophy Therapy is a revolutionary new way to improve. Since ancient times, the discipline of philosophy (practiced by the likes of Socrates, Hume, and Khayyam) has been used not just to advance science and politics, but also to heal the human soul. In Philosophy Therapy, we employ hard-earned conceptual distinctions made by philosophical geniuses over the millennia to solve our personal problems and get a better perspective on our own lives. I will walk you through your everyday concerns, mental health issues, and relationship problems, and help you ask and answer many perplexing questions that may be causing you suffering.

What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
