About Us
The Psycreatives Mental Health Coaching’s (PMHC) approach is integrative, contextual, and pragmatic. We focus not just on mental health problems but on overall psychosocial well-being.
Client openness and active participation are imperative to progress. As coaching entails sharing of personal and sensitive information, there may be periods of increased emotionality and/or confusion during the course of coaching.
We are trained to build trust so if you experience any discomfort with the process, communicate this to your coach for processing.
Telecoaching
It is important to note that telecoaching may present a different experience compared to face-to-face coaching.
On Privacy & Connectivity
The coach and the client shall employ all possible efforts to ensure privacy by making use of reliable and secured platforms (e.g., Google Hangouts, Viber, Zoom), and by holding the session in a private, quiet room.
