Simone Lingenfelder

Specialised life coaching and personal development programs for young adults and teens.

Simone is passionate about the personal growth and development of young adults and teenagers. She feels strongly about creating a new generation of people able to manage their feelings and emotions which she feels will in turn produce calmer, happier, well-adjusted adults. For this reason, she chooses to channel her coaching efforts into young adults who are South Africa’s future. She is committed to bringing insight, new skills, knowledge and understanding to her young client’s lives as they make important decisions for their future and learn more about themselves and the world around them.

Youth Life Coaching: Give your child a significant edge

As young adults begin to make their way in the world what becomes of great importance to them is the need to be able to take control, and effectively manage their lives. They need to deal with life’s issues and build self-reliance and personal resilience and responsibility. By using practical coaching tools and Neuro-Linguistic Programming techniques, young people are able to identify what is important to them and align their thoughts and words and actions in order to realise their full potential. Coaching, at its core, is about helping people tap into existing strengths and talents and assisting them to develop life skills and strategies that will ensure that young adults become more focused, energised, motivated and clear on their future direction.

Simone’s one on one coaching sessions and range of personal development programs for young adults are designed to tackle concerns and frustrations that a young person may experience in their daily lives:

• The Lighthouse 360 Degree Coaching Program is a comprehensive toolkit designed to address a variety of areas of emotional and personal development and is guided by topics such as self-understanding, values, self-esteem and confidence, emotional intelligence, communication skills, managing stress, thinking positively and goal setting.
• The Lighthouse Future Directions Program tackles a range of personal and career development areas such as values and priorities, creating a picture of your future, recognizing knowledge, skills and attributes that you already have and setting career-related goals that help to create steps towards the future you want.
  
  

Lighthouse Coaching and Youth Development is about:

• providing a space of undivided, focused, non-judgmental attention for dealing with challenges
• exploring different options and agreeing on the next steps to take
• helping to clarify thoughts, feelings and ideas
• creating action plans and goals to tackle some of life’s challenges
