How to Choose a Life Coach

Choosing a life coach is an important decision: the quality of the work depends as much on the coach’s expertise as on the rapport you build together. This guide gives you every criterion to choose with confidence.

How to choose well

Three pillars: credibility (ICF, EMCC or recognised-school certification, verified reviews), specialisation (confidence, transitions, relationships…) and rapport. The free discovery session exists precisely to test that last point before committing.

What life coaching is not

Life coaching is neither therapy nor psychological care. A coach starts from the present to help you reach concrete goals. If you are suffering, a healthcare professional remains essential.

Frequently asked questions

  • Ask about certification, experience, method, number of sessions, pricing and cancellation terms. How clearly they answer is already a good signal.
  • Typically 60–150 € per hour depending on experience, often with a free first discovery session.
