Question by Zach M: How can I be a life coach?

Best answer:

Answer by joey d
You could be a school counselor:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School_Counselor
They help kids with their life problems and help guide them to making good descisions in life that will affect them forever! You are basically their adolescent-life coach because you tell them what to do, where to go to college, and help them out with any problems.

Or, if you want to be a professional (life) coach, you could look more into this:

Philosophical Counseling: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_counseling
To become a “Life Coach”, though:
“Currently no regulatory standards exist, and thus no degree or formal training is required to become a life coach.”
However, “life coaching also draws from a wide variety of disciplines, including sociology, psychology, career counseling, mentoring, and numerous other types of counseling.”, so you may want to look into getting degrees in those areas?

What classes do you take in college?

Answer by jannsody
A licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) typically has a master’s degree from a program accredited by CACREP. Some U.S. states use the term “licensed professional counselor” (LPC), however, both professional titles require a master’s degree.

Just an fyi that the counseling/social work (and nursing) field is supposed to have a high burn-out rate.

With regard to schooling (for any field), please do *avoid* those private For-profit schools such as devry, ITT tech, strayer, U of P, capella, argosy, regis, pima medical, keiser, Everest, concorde career and others. Their course credits usually do NOT transfer to other schools, even if the for-profit school is regionally accredited as opposed to only nationally accredited.
