In this episode, Tracy speaks with Cognitive Behavioral Coach Diann Wingert. Diann worked for 20 years as a psychotherapist and was also an adjunct faculty member at the USC School of Social Work, where she trained graduate students to become therapists at Children's Hospital Los Angeles. She transitioned from psychotherapist to coach because she found coaching more successful at creating real, positive change in her clients. Diann observed too many brilliant and capable women struggling with distractibility, procrastination, perfectionism, and self-doubt, which held them back from fully expressing their gifts in the world.
Many of these women had been diagnosed with anxiety or depression and had no idea that their underlying issue was actually ADHD, including Diann herself. She is now on a mission to help other gifted, creative, and entrepreneurial women of all ages achieve their true potential through radical self-acceptance, leveraging their strengths, and creating an ADHD-friendly business and life.
Diann goes on to share:
- Her definitions of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and how CBT differs from Cognitive Behavioral Coaching (CBC).
- The role of therapy vs. coaching.
- How you can change your self-concept with CBC.
- How our thoughts, feelings, and actions determine our results.
- Who is a candidate for CBT/CBC, and who is not.
- Whether therapy and CBT/CBC can be conducted at the same time.
- Why asking better questions is so important to our sense of self-esteem.
