A Research Paper By Aneta Kantarowska
Life Coach, NETHERLANDS
In this research paper, I will look at what a victim mentality is, how to coach a client who has one, and what resources a client can use in addition to coaching. Coaching can be used with a victim mentality client as a sounding board, but it can also be used to partner with a client to realize their thinking patterns and limitations, and whenever they are ready to take some actions to change the course of their life. Clients who have a victim mentality may need a coach who is compassionate and acknowledges that they have been through some traumatic events. They may object to being judged or labeled as a victim.
