Jillian Eichel

I coach people to get off auto-pilot and take the steps needed for personal and professional transformation. I use resources and education developed by the excellent Chicago-based Wright Foundation for the Realization of Human Potential that integrates positive and developmental psych, existential philosophy, neuroscience, attachment and systems theory, and more! This curriculum includes everything from personality style assessments to models of conflict resolution in relationships to general understanding of human development (why you are the way you are)!

All these tools allow us a huge range of possibility for the best coaching plan for you. Our first meeting will leave you hopeful, with a vision of where you are going and the start of a plan to get you there! It helps to have someone hold a vision for us when we can't hold it yet for ourselves.

I help my clients overcome issues such as:
• Procrastination
• Dating and relationship issues
• Poor planning and goal setting
• Feelings of emotional overwhelm and stress
• Difficulties communicating in relationships
• Not living up to potential/no life purpose
• Relationship struggles and communication issues
• Tendencies toward pessimism and self-criticism
• low social and emotional intelligence

Results I have helped my clients obtain are:
• Overall life satisfaction and meaning
• Job promotions
• Replacing sabotaging habits with healthy ones
• Greater intimacy with loved ones
• Successful singlehood
• Identification and expression of feelings
• Enhancing feelings of hope and positivity
• Clear communication at work and home
• Moving out of victimhood into personal responsibility
• Self-love and compassion
• Authenticity
• Managing stress and loneliness through the pandemic
