A lot of coaches will tell you that anyone can be coached. Or they will say that a good coach can coach anyone. To be blunt, I don't believe either of those statements are true.
I think there are some specific traits that a good coachee needs to have in order to be coachable. Check the list below to see if you are coachable at this time.
And, likewise, a really outstanding coach will know and admit when they aren't able to help. Due to the limitations of my training, state law, and personal interest, I don't accept everyone who wants to be my client. See the list at left to determine if you are eligible.

Coaching is not a substitute for mental health counseling
to making transformative change
in your life is a process that
can heighten anxiety,
does require focused attention,
may trigger frustration or
disillusionment at times ~
all of which require that clients be
receptive to feedback,
self-empowered and
emotionally stable.
