Thank you for visiting our site, we hope you enjoy exploring what we have to offer and welcome your feedback or any suggestions. Northern Ireland Health & Wellness Coaching Academy is built on a strong foundation of integrity, genuine expertise and a commitment to promote personal, community and workplace wellbeing and good mental health. Our team of coach and coach trainers are specifically chosen on the basis of what they each bring to the team and more importantly what they bring to the individual, the community or the workplace. We are unique, because each of our coaches are specialists in their own field and have amassed a life time of expertise and experience within the field of education, health, social welfare, psychology and community empowerment. We strongly advocate the integrity of delivering results that can quickly be measured by both the person receiving our services and by those connected or involved such as GPs or family. We believe recovery from stress, anxiety and depression must start with the the understanding that these feelings are not an illness but a strong human emotion. The vast majority of people do not need long term therapy, counselling or any other problem focused setting that prolongs a return to feeling better or recovery by dwelling on the problem. We focus on what is working in the persons life and not what is perceived or promoted as broken or sick. We assist recovery by building on strengths not by digging into problems. When the person quickly feels the positive change within themselves they soon come on board with our approach. Depression, anxious living and life distresses are feelings that can have a major impact on peoples lives but these feelings are not permanent nor do they need to keep reoccurring over and over again. Note: As a guide: Per referred issue. Brief 1 to 3 Sessions Average 3 to 6 Sessions Long term 6 to 12 Sessions Coaching is the fastest growing process today for making positive solution focused change. “Coaching is about shifting from survival of the fittest to development of the fittest”. It is a guided relationship process established with a team member in which both parties are accountable.      The coaching  process is forward looking, change oriented, and developmental. It is also a tool enabling higher team member and client satisfaction, productivity, and stakeholder value. It is not therapy, counseling, or giving advice. Our method of NLC Coaching is a communication process, a way of enabling stuck or trapped emotions to defuse themselves by working towards solutions not digging into problems. Coaching is more about being than doing. It is more about essence than role. It comes from being authentic and congruent. Who the coach is and what the coach does are consistent. The value and contribution of coaching is achieved through service not control. At the core of service is interdependence and reciprocity. The coaching process appears to work best when there are mutual benefits and the process is based on a relationship involving trust, support, and shared values. Finally the coach has a non-anxious presence creating an environment that is safe for both parties.      The bottom line with us is results that you will see, feel and hear from the first session...and recovery or a return to good emotional health within weeks. You will know from our free introductory session if our approach to recovery is for you...you have nothing to loose but the thoughts and feelings you no longer wish to have.   For more information please e mail info@ni-hwca.com  We don't say "show me whats broken or damaged and we will look at it, walk around it, dig into it, prod it, tilt our head and tut at it" If you are prepared to take action, we will offer you the real choice to remove it, perhaps much easier than you think.
