Uplevel FAQ
- What is coaching? For us, coaching is the process through which a person wants to gain more fulfillment, satisfaction and purpose on a certain area of their life. Then, through the coaching process, that person will set up goals, an action plan, and will work to create the progress and breakthroughs to achieve long lasting transformation.
- What is the difference between coaching, therapy and mentoring? A Coach will work with you, so you set up goals and achieve the results you want. A mentor will teach you how to achieve those results based on his or her own experience. A Therapist will work on your deepest emotional layers and most of the work could be around traumas.
- What certifications do you have? Our staff has a master’s degree in Coaching with Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) specialty, a license in Psychology, and is constantly learning new skills to be the best they can, and thus, be the best ones for you. For example, in 2019 we accomplished a certification as Knowledge Brokers from the Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi mastermind, that has prepared us to be the best at delivering online programs. We also have more than a decade of experience working at HR at multinational companies. Go to our About section to learn more.
- How does the coaching process look like? If you are an individual seeking life coaching, we set up an initial conversation to understand your goals for the process, we co-create an action plan, and a coach supports you through the process until you achieve your goals. If you are on a coaching program as part of the perks your company offers, we take into consideration your company´s needs and goals, your field, where you are and what you need to do to get to the next level. In both cases, we provide a personalized success roadmap for you.
- How do I know if I need a coach? If you want to take your career or life to the next level, and you had struggled with tapping into your full potential, then coaching is what you need.
- How do I know if I need coaching, or something else? If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, any kind of medical condition, or your mental and physical health are compromised at this moment, we encourage you to seek professionals at those areas first, or in parallel to working with use. Please understand that coaching is not and should never be a substitute to seeking professional help with a psychiatrist, psychologist or doctor.
