Jason K.
When I decided to hire Jason, it was because he appeared to provide the solution for what I needed. There was a little bit of peer pressure against it, but after some discussion about the cost versus benefit of it, I went ahead and jumped in and gave it a shot.
Based on the first few questions that Jason asked me, it became obvious to me that I was not communicating clearly to other people and I wasn’t able to formulate what I wanted for myself clearly at all. So that made me realize that I could definitely use some one-on-one coaching. I also needed Jason’s help to get through the divorce I'm currently in.
The most prominent thing I found was that I am not as clear on my expectations or wants and desires as I should be. The other thing that I really appreciated and found to be valuable was the ability for me to work through specific scenarios with Jason. He prompted me to think about my responses to questions or complicated scenarios that were presented by my ex-wife. That's probably the most valuable thing. When dealing with somebody as strong or as narcissistic as she is, it's easy me to get wrapped around the axle with my responses.
The best thing that I got from coaching with Jason was help through these specific interactions. In my work with Jason, I got a lot of peace of mind while dealing with my ex’s narcissistic behaviors. Jason’s ability to evaluate things for me really helped my thought process.
I definitely felt the prompting Jason gave me to communicate more clearly with the women that I became involved with was extremely helpful. It definitely made it easier for me to solve the problems that came up. Jason pushed me to be more up front and ask the difficult questions early. Both women I dated were very appreciative of that. I would definitely take that with me into any future exchanges with other women.
I appreciated Jason’s analysis of conversations and text messages. But more importantly I appreciated the way he was direct and held me accountable for what I would say to other people. I felt that that was the most beneficial in the long run. Jason didn't give me any slack. I'm stoked about that part of it. We really drove down into my underlying desires and what I really was trying to achieve. These were things that I wasn't really clear about. I think Jason’s intensity about getting to the bottom things is really good.
Analyzing behaviors is definitely one of the benefits of Jason’s coaching. It definitely helped me be more confident in dealing with problems in relationships. And I’ve improved my ability to clearly articulate my desires.
Jason has the ability to be available via text for emergencies or email for things that aren't emergencies. This is a higher level of availability than a normal therapist. Jason created more of a personal relationship with me that helped me move forward. This was better than sitting in a chair in a specific time slot where you talk and are not really pushed. The follow up with the exchanges during the week to see if I was making progress was really helpful.
I would definitely recommend Jason’s coaching to people who are not confident in who they are or what they want. Jason’s coaching is helpful for people who have relationship issues with people with very dominant personalities. I would also recommend Jason to people having trouble in their dating world.
