First of all, I’m sorry you’re going through a hard time. Remembering that it’s temporary and having hope for what might be yet to come (“you can’t connect the dots looking forward”) has helped me through hard times.
Re: the second half of your request: when I was in an unsteady time my insurance magically began offering health & wellness coaching. I tried it out, and health & wellness coaches do exactly what you’re looking for-support people in building healthy habits to reach their personal vision for their health & wellness & their lives. They are not going to tell you what to do, but to help you discover what feels most important to you & support you along the way. It’s an approach that says you have the answers inside of you & it makes all the difference to have someone to talk through it with & offer support & encouragement & accountability!
I was so impacted by my experience I am becoming a NBC-HWC, studying for the board exam now. As a part of the process, we have to have a certain number of sessions with volunteer clients. I’m finished with my sessions and more focused on studying, but let me know if you’d like me to connect you to a peer coach currently offering sessions for free :)
