About - MYAC - Coaching and mediating service

“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.”

- John Milton

Taking a proactive approach to life means focusing on preventing or eliminating a problem before it causes damage to your happiness, outlook and general way of living. A reactive approach is based on only responding to events after they have happened, and the damage has been done. The difference between these two approaches is the perspective each one provides the person in assessing actions and events.

About MYAC Life Coaching:

I founded MYAC LIFE COACHING to fulfil my passion and lifelong dream of unlocking the motivation and happiness I know is concealed within every person. I use my methodology, individual life coaching sessions, workshops and seminars to help my clients achieve balance and success in their day to day while developing their personal growth and direction in life.
We are all looking to achieve happiness in our lives. But what we don’t realise is that it is already within us – lying right beneath the surface and waiting to be brought to life using the right mental and emotional tools. The journey to reaching your bundle of happiness can be challenging, stressful, confusing and lengthy. MYAC LIFE COACHING can take the pressure off by helping you work through these difficulties and equipping you with the right tools needed grab a hold of your happiness and use it to see the world the way you’ve always wanted to!

MYAC will be the torch if the tunnel seems dark and discover better pathways and possibilities together.

My methodology

Through my studies and practical experience, I have chosen to use a step-by-step solution focused methodology with my clients. With this approach, I can concentrate on your future and aspirations. Through this, you and I can co-construct a solution that is best suited to your goals and needs.

Step 1: Person-centred approach

American psychologist Carl Rogers developed this practise the 1940s. Using this approach, I focus on guiding my client to self-actualisation, fulfilment and acceptance using empathetic understanding.

Step 2: Systemic approach

Also known as family therapy, this approach allows me to assist clients not only as individuals, but as someone who is part of a family. With the help of that family, we will collectively observe your visions, goals, communication skills, emotional capacity, intuition and thought patterns. Through this interaction, I can create an action plan and provide feedback catered specifically for you.

Step 3: Action orientated approach

This approach focusses on your core issues. I will use specialised tools, relevant theories and practical steps to guide you to your previously discussed goals and aspirations. I will follow a coaching process called cognitive behavioural therapy, which is used to help you manage your difficulties by changing the way you think and behave.
