. Some individuals do therapy and coaching together but working on one thing at a time is certianly understandable. Before considering it most coaches would want approval from your therapist of social worker. If you were to find a coach I would suggest making sure the coach is accredited through the ICF. The International Coaches Federation will also lead you in the right direction to find a coach. You can often get inexpensive coaching from people who are in training.

Hi, Sunny, thanks for your suggestion I have heard of a life coach before but I am unaware of exactly what they would do. Could you clarify as to what a life coach is I.E. a psycholigist, a social worker, or is it none of these, and perhaps where I could find one? The problem I have is that when I went to the cognitive therapist he said to me that he has never had someone fill the work book in its entirety before, and that he never new anyone come in for therapy that new so much about anxiety and panic attacks. Please understand that I am I no way bragging in fact I am pointing out how I can look to other people like my therapist. In yet at the same time I may have the knowledge but lack the wisdom to apply it to myself. He was under the impression that I was smart enough to solve all my own problems. In my support group I go to there is a man that said I helped him more than I helped any social worker he has ever had. He is a schizophrenic and was asking is there a difference between the mind and brain, I knew exactly why he was asking this, he thought that he was going to think himself out of schizophrenia, I said to him there is nothing you can do about the schizophrenia. The only thing he can do is reduce its impact on his life and reduce his anxiety towards it. One day I realized what I told him to accept what he has and work on what he can change, is something that I never did before for me, knowledge verses wisdom. As you can see with all my investigation into various disciplines, I was trying to think myself out of panic attacks and anxiety. The one thing my social worker said is that I am exploring too much such as mindfulness, philosophy, cognitive behavior therapy, neuroplasticiy, brain neurotransmitters involved in panic attacks and so on. I would still appreciate some guidance about a life coach but I believe I have to concentrate on cognitive therapy right now and ignore all my other investigations.

I just asked that to get you thinking about challenging yourself. To get you thinking outside the box of what you think is possible for yourself, not to worry about rejection and have fun with it. The point to get to is to find a way you can look at dating and relationships that will serve you, that will help build your confidence. Sunny is completely right try not to look at the rejection as negative because it isn't negative.
