I did paid coaching for the full 20 weeks. It put me on track to achieve my goals. I liked that it provided the space to reflect weekly on solutions to achieve my goals. I think it could do with more hands-on help and resources that would give insight on achieving goals and navigating challenges.

HG Coaching helped me a lot. Helped me change how I dealt with my addictions and my emotions to a more healthy way. Helped me talk through and process my emotions in difficult times, helped me stay on the path of improving myself and also helped me understand a bit more why I try so hard to become better. But I think the price is a bit too expensive if you live in a country with weak currency compared to USD, the price is more than the minimum wage in Brazil and I think people need and deserve to have more accessible help.

I've been in 1:1 coaching for about a year and a half and I can say in that time my coach has helped me develop a better understanding of myself, encouraged me to explore the origins of my behaviors, and helped me recognize different patterns in my life. I still haven't reached all my goals yet, but I feel like I have a foundation to build the path going forward.

I gained a profound understanding of my emotions, leading to stronger, more fulfilling relationships. If you're looking to elevate your life, I highly recommend personal coaching.

An incredibly helpful way to get started if you want to start making progress but don't know where to start.

Like many other young adults these days, I have a social media addiction. It was so bad that I would literally binge social media all day every day, despite having tons of work to do. A few months ago, I decided to disable all my social media accounts. It was actually Dr. K's video "The Real Effects of Internet Addiction" that finally convinced me to do this. Because I had a lot of questions on his videos and was just so intrigued by his channel, I decided to try out coaching on HealthyGamer. I thought maybe this could help me understand why I have this social media addiction. I won't lie, the counseling in itself was a great experience! Mainly because it was so nice to have someone to just talk to about all my issues, and it was nice to actually feel validated about my issues, plus I feel like I learned a lot about myself. But I must remind myself: Why did I come here again? My main reason for trying HG Coaching was to learn about my social media addiction, and do something about it. Now I need to be honest, did HG Coaching actually help me get through my social media addiction? Honestly, not at all. Despite all the discussing we did about my issues, I may have gotten rid of Instagram but I was still using YouTube all day every day. We discussed how this could be because I'm lonely, how this could be because I'm experiencing some sort of negative emotion, but at the end even with understanding that, I still binged these apps. And honestly, it didn't really seem like any amount of coaching was going to change the fact that I am heavily addicted to social media: But then one day, after speaking to many friends and browsing Reddit, I came to a very, very obvious realization: I'm using YouTube and other social media applications because they're just designed to be incredibly addictive. Duh, of course. But what does this mean? It means literally no amount of willpower or understanding of myself is going to change the fact that this is addictive and that I, as any normal human being, would probably end up getting hooked and staying hooked to something that is designed to keep us hooked. I'm not necessarily coming back to social media every day because I'm sad, or because I'm lonely, or because I'm anxious, there is not necessarily any flaw on my end. There are some people I know who aren't even lonely or sad and they themselves are more addicted to social media than I am. And so on that note I felt that paying hundreds of dollars for HG Coaching for something I just did a way more efficient job of solving myself was not really worth it. I solved my issue of social media addiction by just downloading some website/app blockers, blocking the social media app/websites, and getting used to no social media. I overcomplicated an issue which honestly was not that difficult to understand, and did not necessarily require me having to spend hundreds of dollars for coaching. In fact, I'd say that as far as the issue of my social media addiction is concerned, HealthyGamer's free youtube videos were actually FAR more helpful in understanding myself and this issue of social media addiction than coaching itself was. ALL OF THAT BEING SAID, I do not mean to imply that coaching was a bad experience whatsoever. It was in fact a great experience, as I could talk to someone about my emotions, about the issues that are bothering me, etc. etc. If you are someone that is struggling with your emotions and could use someone to talk to, help advise you, or just make you feel validated, I would definitely recommend HG Coaching. But in my case of specifically dealing with social media addiction, I honestly just didn't find it super helpful. If my only goal was to come here and learn to curb my social media usage, I would have probably felt that this was sort of a waste of money.

HealthyGamerGG's coaching sessions have helped me with my audhd, anxiety and depression with keeping things organized and have a better thought process on how to view things positively. I used to observe things negatively which made me anxious in social interactions which happens less now so that's an improvement. Coaching sessions are quite expensive but it was well worth the price, I am also extending my sessions to receive more coaching.

Really solid service. I have changed as a person because of the HG resources and coach that I started working with. I didn't have specific goals in mind, but coaching helped me in many areas of my life, while also having someone to talk to about my experiences, difficulties, and learnings over the 20 weeks. If you can't afford coaching, I would still absolutely recommend Dr K's Guide to Mental Health to anyone and everyone. It has the kind of information and wisdom that I wish was taught in schools. How are we supposed to play Life skilfully if we were never taught how to play? My only qualm is that unless you really have something that you want to achieve going in, the 20 weeks can go by quickly without having specific goals set that you are moving towards. My words of advice would be to go through the 'Doing stuff' materials of Dr K's Guide immediately so you know how to make goals that you care about, and really push for your coach to keep you to them.
