Life Coaching

Life Coaching in Marbella

Life coaching and psychotherapy occupy different territories, and the difference is not merely semantic. Coaching is oriented forward — towards goals, changes in direction, the removal of practical and psychological obstacles to what a person wants to move towards. Psychotherapy is oriented both forward and backward, asking not just where you want to go but what is keeping the present arrangement in place and what it would cost to change it.

Dr Jacquet works at the intersection of both. The coaching work he offers in Marbella is grounded in 25 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist — which means it is not simply goal-setting and accountability, but work that takes seriously the internal dimensions of change, the parts of the self that resist what the conscious mind has decided to want, and the ways in which past experience shapes present possibility.

Who This Is For

The coaching practice in Marbella is suited to professionals and individuals who have a clear sense that something needs to change — in their work, their relationships, their direction — but who have found that clarity about the destination does not, by itself, produce movement. The people who come to this kind of work are not lacking in intelligence or effort. They are dealing with the subtler internal resistances that ordinary willpower cannot resolve.

Credentials

Dr Jacquet trained as an executive coach at ESSEC Business School — a Financial Times top-ten European business school — and has worked with senior professionals including CEOs, barristers, financiers and political figures. He is also a Jungian analyst and integrative psychotherapist, EMDR-trained for over 20 years, and the only person in Europe to have conducted doctoral research on male eating disorders.
