I’m Christina Papathanasiou and I founded COACHING LAB because I want to empower as many people as possible to be happy with the lives they lead and choices they make.
Nowadays, we keep being bombarded with advice on how to be “the best version of ourselves”, how to make the best possible life choices or how to best conquer our dreams. Truth be told though, there is no single recipe for all that!
My mission is to help people attain fulfillment through their life choices, rather than “make the best choices”. Besides, what is “best” for each of us, is not up for comparison!

Methodology
Coaching amplifies self-exploration. Real and long-lasting change can only come from the inside out. To guide this process, I have developed a framework that emphasizes self-reflection, is agile enough to accommodate a range of needs, and incorporates your unique capabilities to achieve what you want. I call it the I.D.E.A. method of coaching.
The I.D.E.A. method breaks down your coaching journey into four stages:
The first step in our collaboration is to recognize what you want to achieve; to identify where you stand today and where you see yourself in the future. You will focus on the challenges that might be holding you back and the obstacles that may be preventing you from taking action. You will understand the kind of transformation you seek and we’ll put together a tailor-made coaching plan to suit your needs.
Once a coaching plan has been created, we will explore what motivates you, become more aware of your current mindset and emotions and reflect on how your values connect to your goals. Through this process you will reconnect with your true self, gaining insights and perspectives that open up new possibilities.
Thought-provoking conversations and tasks that stretch your boundaries will help you visualize the life you aspire to have. Having taken yourself out of “autopilot” mode, you will approach everyday challenges in a more thoughtful way, taking deliberate and focused action to create better results for yourself and others.
Having experienced a transformation in your thinking and behavior, you are now ready to act. You will design a clear and realistic action plan to make your vision a reality. The role of the coach at this stage is to keep you accountable for taking action.

Answer your Questions
Coaching is an interactive and creative process of self-improvement. The guidance of a coach helps you recognize your goals and desires and brings the results you desire in every area of your life, with the help of a specific methodology, adapted to suit your needs.
Coaching is aimed at people who want to achieve their goals and consciously seek to develop their life skills. People who understand their strengths but have yet to discover how to make the most of them, as they’re lacking the tools that will build self-confidence and resilience to adversity.
Coacing gives you the resources to focus on your own conscious evolution in the present, and your path into the future. As we define and refine our goals and desires, we develop the ability to overcome obstacles and organize our lives in harmony with our inner needs
At COACHING LAB, we look at the present, always having the future in mind. Our experience with people of different ages and in different phases of their lives gives us the necessary experience to focus on your needs through a personalized process.
We place a special emphasis on people who want to set a new course and are on the cusp of change, and we have already helped several young adults and adolescents who are at the beginning of their professional or academic journeys.
The innovative point of view of COACHING LAB and our customized framework will help you build your own path for life, in accordance with your values and desires.
