Structural Life Coaching Course
Why is it called Structural Life Coaching?
The term ‘Structural’ refers to the techniques used in this training to facilitate the emergence of solid structures out of the “chaos” in one’s mind and therefore to make the goal more specific; and to the ability of the Coaches to perceive certain mental structures in their clients’ lives (the latter are the result of this training). Some of those approaches in perceiving those structures are the Cartography of the Body, and the Panopticon of Desire (those are taught in the course). The term, ‘Structural’, is also a reference to the unconscious structures and topological transformations of Lacanian psychoanalysis. Those concepts have been modified and have been applied to the training program in such a way, as to accommodate the aim of goal achieving leading to personal and professional development.
Build it.
The program took substance after the realization that, although Life and Business Coaching have good intentions in their conceptions and practices, in reality, a great number of coaches do not know how to approach the human soul; this is even truer when it comes to the topic of desire. Lots of coaching and consulting is carried out based on the “mirroring” principle: that the coach is the ideal person to become- a Subject Who Knows. Petros Patounas has created a method of practicing principles that enables those using the Structural method to utilize the best outcomes from their personnel, clients, or from those around them without, however, using their own selves as the ultimate example. this process allows for the emergence of distinct characters and abilities. Mostly, this Life Coaching training course wants to equip coaches with a deeper understanding of the human soul, the unconscious dimensions of the mind operating in personal life and the workplace, and to provide students with coordinates that enable them to form a precise understanding of the nature of human desire. The course offers, in addition, exclusive insights about the mind, motivation and the way of our higher mental functions.
