Feel Empathy to Clients Based on Developmental Theory

Now, I provide not only adults but also adolescents with Integral Coaching, and I often feel that I want to support their psychological growth, looking at their developmental process same as the process which I went through.

However, I sometimes forget the fact that I followed the same developmental path and I faced the same developmental objectives that they face right now. Regarding this point, I always try not to forget the fact, but it is sometimes difficult for me to remember the fact.

I think understanding developmental psychology leads to empathy to clients’ development, so I want to cultivate the understanding in a serious manner. This is a short memo after a coaching session.
