The service provided by Mike Thomas at Life Coaching Today has been the exact support I’ve needed. I’ve worked on self evaluating exercises, looked at time scheduling, how to cope with chronic illness and using strengths to better myself and others in my life.
His professional approach, patience and enthusiasm makes problem solving feel less daunting and the advice given has been fair and concise regarding my circumstance. I’ve received guidance when I needed help revamping my CV and went through role-play practice sessions to build my confidence in preparing for job interviews. He’s been a tremendous coach in helping me to think realistically about my strengths and weaknesses and how I can achieve realistic goals when I put my mind and heart to it. I’ve learnt so much about myself and valuable life lessons through the wisdom Mike selflessly shared and truly appreciate and recommend this service.

Sheka- Review of Mike Thomas coaching
Having undergo a few life coaching sessions with Mike Thomas it has helped me a lot in empowering me on how to: face my fears, deal with my fears, managing my fears and overcoming my fears.
I received a practical one to one coaching session which helped me to start thinking less about things and the issues that were wearing me down and to consider the positive steps I could take, and it helped me with my own self esteem. His encouragement was that I should not worry and stress about things that may not happen or that were at that point out of my control.
Prior to this, because of my fears and anxiety I would get panic attacks and was overwhelmed with stress and over thinking but through Mike’s encouragement it has helped me to review things in my mind and set new priorities
Furthermore, I receive a guidance information booklet to read on anxiety and panic attacks which has helped me to gain an understanding on how I can really manage my anxiety and fears in a practical way. Due to this, I have been able to perform well at work and in my social life. I now feel much better and more like myself, I’m engaging with friends and family in activities now. I believe that seeking life coaching help from Mike can make a huge impact in your health and wellbeing as it has done to me. Therefore, I recommend that if you are experiencing this situation as I went through do not hesitate to seek help from Mike as it can make massive difference in your life.

Life coaching today encourages me to address my feelings and approach each fear by working with me to find a solution.
This has allowed me to take small steps at a time and build on my self confidence and well being and health which had suffered over many years.
Overall this has had a great impact on how I have taken control not being afraid to move forward rather than suffer in silence.

Mike Thomas helped me immensely during a period of acute work related anxiety.
He showed real understanding and sincere concern for my well-being, providing myself and members of my family with very helpful techniques to help me deal with and overcome this traumatic experience.
Even now that I am much better, he still takes the time to see if I am ok giving me words of encouragement.
He was always calm, patient, understanding and showed a 'we will conquer this' attitude. His support gave me the confidence I needed to deal with the situation rather than hide away.
I would say he always went above and beyond and provided me with a great deal of help at what was a very low point in my life.
It was nice to know there was someone I could speak to in confidence who was only to willing to listen and help. Even at times when I was at my lowest he was there with words of encouragement no matter what time.
I cannot recommend him enough or thank him for his kindness!

I truly appreciate the help, guidance and support Mike Thomas provided during a very difficult period of my life. I was having to deal with serious work issues, moving home, financial problems and ill health brought on by all the above.
Mike demonstrated his ability to support me with both my professional and personal issues. He provided valuable information and advice which enabled me to navigate the problems I was having to deal with at work. He helped build my confidence through encouragement, and by helping me to set practical achievable goals. His support was empowering. It gave me the courage to re-evaluate my circumstances and utilise my skills and experiences to improve my financial situation.
He provided much needed words of wisdom which helped me focus and prioritise when I was at my lowest emotional state.
He kept in regular contact, was easily accessible when needed, and showed by his responses that he not only listened to what I was going through, but that he heard and understood me.
I am so grateful to Mike for being there when I really needed help and I will always recommend him to anyone needing an honest, level headed, realistic, experienced mentor/life coach, and most importantly – friend.

Mike Thomas is an experienced trainer/coach with a broad knowledge of general management and housing background and has helped me with my career goals at the same time recommending strategies for achieving them.
I have learnt more about drafting standard resumes, taking me through interview techniques for future career moves if I needed one. He also introduced to me career planning guide which I have used to plan work related targets and achieved them as planned, hence becoming more secure with a proper sense of direction.
Mike demonstrates patience and respectful guidance during the coaching session hence giving one confidence to enquire more about the subject in question. I therefore recommend him to anyone who would like to learn some management styles, or anything work related. He is the person who would transform your life and prepare you for job interviews.

Mike Thomas my coach has been very helpful in providing me with career advice. Being a young person it’s hard to gain an understanding of the working world, but Mikes’ advice has given me a practical insight into work. He has conducted practice interviews with me to teach me how to conduct myself in an interview as well as what information to share regarding my work experience. He has also taught me about researching the company’s history before an interview. When it came to my CV, he stressed the importance of regularly updating my CV whenever I am taught something new or when I take on a new role at work and also showed me how to make my CV look more appealing to an employer. With his help, I was also able to gain a volunteer maintenance admin post which has helped further understand the roles and responsibilities that adults have to undertake at work. More...
