What is Coaching?
Hello! I’m Melanie Gallo, PhD, a wife, mom, sister, caregiver, National Board Certified Mental Health Coach, business psychology specialist, and the creator behind WorkLifeJoy™️ Coach2GO. And I am so happy you are here!
Wondering what the heck is Your WorkLifeJoy™️ Coach2GO? Read on as I connect the dots between mental health coaching, therapy, digital coaching, and how everything works here!
Mental health coaching focuses on taking actions in the present to achieve a goal or make a change that improves your life in a meaningful way. Coaching also provides a framework for you to explore what's most important to you right now. People use coaching for a variety of things they want to work on like coping skills for stress, anxiety, and depression, building or changing habits, support with goal setting, relationships, communication, increased motivation, increasing clarity in their careers, finding harmony between work and life, and more.
Mental health coaching is not therapy or counseling.
Therapy on the other hand, (also called psychotherapy or counseling), consists of sessions with a licensed clinician to help you address ongoing psychological symptoms, or patterns of thought, behavior, or emotion that no longer serve you. Therapy can allow you to dive deeper into past or present issues to make positive change in your life.
If based on your life and how you know yourself best, you feel that therapy is a fit, psychologytoday.com is one of the largest directories of licensed therapists, counselors, and psychiatrists clinicians and can be a great place to find clinical support. If you are unsure, please feel free to download my Coach2GO app and message me. We can chat a bit and I can help.
Snorkeling vs Scuba Diving
Mental health coaching is like snorkeling while therapy is like scuba diving. And as a mental health coach I can see and recognize many of the things going on down deep, but I do not go down there. I stay up top and help you establish and maintain momentum in the current on your journey towards your goals. And the best part is that coaching and therapy are also great compliments to each other!
Mental health coaching and therapy are great compliments to each other.
Digital coaching is tech-enabled coaching provided by a human coach, both synchronously (scheduled, meets virtually, in real-time) and asyncronously (unscheduled, self-guided, on your own time), using video, phone, and chat-based communication to empower a human coachee in their self-development.
What is Your WorkLifeJoy™️ Coach2GO?

How do Your WorkLifeJoy™️ Coach2GO programs work?
Coach2GO offers self-guided coaching programs that are packed with the same types of guidance and resources that I have shared over thousands of coaching hours, working with clients everyday.
With the 1-on-1 services offered byYour WorkLifeJoy™️ Coach, we work together during scheduled sessions to determine what small, achievable steps would help you work towards your goal and eventually graduate! Graduation is our ultimate objective in coaching as it can indicate skills learned and sustained consistency over time. And depending on your budget and scheduling preferences, 1-on-1 coaching sessions are available by video, phone, or via real-time chat.
Similarly, Your WorkLifeJoy™️ Coach2GO self-guided programs are also structured to walk you through your personal development journey, in a way similar to how we do when working together 1-on-1. Coaching focuses on taking action in your life to achieve a goal or make a personal change so once you choose a goal or challenge area to focus on, you can create a plan, and take the steps to get there.
If you are interested in working together 1-on-1, you can find out more about my 1-on-1 coaching plans by clicking the link. 💁🏾♀️ I'd love to work together!

What makes Coach2GO programs different?
🧭 Expert Guidance from Dr. Melanie
Right now, the coaching industry is still not regulated...so not all coaches and programs are created equal. With Coach2GO, the focus is on wellness first. You can be sure that you are being supported by a coach with a formal education in psychology (B.A, PhD), formal mental health coach training (NBC-HWC), and thousands of coaching hours, all centered around helping people be well mentally, physically, and emotionally.
Plus, as a member of the American Psychological Association (APA), and certified through the National Board of Medical Examiners, you can be assured that your coach follows industry ethical standards and practices.
🧭 Accountability
Coach2GO's digital coaching nudges provide accountability to help you increase awareness, take action, and build new habits and behaviors that last!
🧭 Structured
Don't know how you will ever find the time for coaching? You’ve found your solution! Coach2GO's programs are streamlined and effective without being overly intrusive in your life. Real change is incremental and comes with consistency. This is structured to help you make real, lasting change.
🧭 Science-based
Psychological science provides the foundation for understanding human behavior in both our personal and professional lives. You can feel confident that Dr. Melanie uses evidence based methodologies and resources from health and wellness coaching, social & personality psychology, positive psychology, cognitive psychology, and business psychology both in your 1-on-1 sessions and throughout the Coach2GO self-guided programs.
🧭 Powerful
Coach2GO self-guided programs provide guidance in a practical new way, every day, from day one, without losing time, money or momentum. Coach2GO is designed to fit into the fabric of a busy schedule and add value without being intrusive. Lightweight yet packed with the power to rocket you to new levels.
Your “AH-HA “ moment can happen TODAY!💡
Sometimes when we are looking for something to change in an area of our lives, we first need to take time and REFLECT. And reflection takes courage!
When you understand more about yourself, it enables you to choose goals, careers and challenges that make sense for you. When the Titanic sank, it didn't sink because it hit the part of the iceberg that they could see. It sank because it hit that massive portion underneath the waterline that they couldn't see. You just don't know, what you don't know.
In Your Life
When you get to a place where you feel like you are doing the right things in your life but you aren’t getting where you really want to be, it is often because you can’t see what is really standing in your way, or you aren’t clear about what your goals really are. So, by first increasing self-awareness around your healthy and unhealthy behavioral tendencies, areas in need of growth, thoughts, beliefs, and underlying emotions, you receive an incredible opportunity to develop yourself and improve your interactions with others.
In Your Work
When changing careers or even nnavigating through the one you have, self-awareness around things like communication, work styles, strengths, and opportunities for growth can also give you an incredible opportunity to develop yourself.
Develop yourself. Improve interactions with others. Move towards your vision of WorkLifeJoy!
