Nurit Amichai's style
🎯 Direct 💙 Warm 👂 Listener 🥇 EmpoweringWhy Nurit Amichai chose to be in the helping profession
Back in the 1990s, as a married mother of three young children and the owner of a fitness business, I often found myself overwhelmed and feeling like I had too many balls in the air. It was during the early part of that decade that I was introduced to a personal growth five-day intensive program that not only changed my life, but helped me awaken to the real call on my life: coaching. I was deeply impacted by the experience and by the possibilities that opened up when we were willing to look at our beliefs, habits, and the ways we approached our lives.
As a result of my involvement as a participant, I eventually became an assistant trainer, and within a few years, I was facilitating personal growth programs alongside psychologists and therapists. I had found my groove, and the thrill of seeing lives positively impacted by habit change and reframing old mindsets set me firmly on the path of the coaching profession. What began as a personal experience became something much bigger for me. I discovered how meaningful it was to help people see new possibilities for themselves and take steps toward creating real and lasting change.
Nurit Amichai's approach
My approach to coaching and lifestyle counseling is simple, direct, and empowering. I believe that the answers to our dilemmas are often buried within us, but our beliefs can keep us from finding or owning them. Through careful listening and asking great questions, I help my clients open up to possibilities and discover answers that they may already have within them. I don't see myself as someone who has all the answers, but rather as someone who can help you uncover your own inner wisdom and begin to trust it.
I use client-centered, holistic frameworks to help clients establish long-term changes. Our work includes a goal-oriented conversational approach to examine beliefs and destructive thought patterns, as well as CBT to work with behavioral changes. My certification in Feminine Power Women’s Coaching also allows me to gear my work specifically to the needs of women rather than taking a generic approach. This means I can provide women with specific tools that help open them to the possibilities of becoming who they came here to be, while creating habits and making changes that support the life they want to live.
What you can expect from sessions with Nurit Amichai
Our sessions are a confidential, collaborative conversation focused on moving you forward. I listen deeply and carefully to you and ask powerful questions that help you find your own inner wisdom and insights. We open with a simple question: “What’s on your mind?” That question sets the agenda for the session and allows us to begin with what feels most relevant to you in that moment.
Future sessions include a review of your progress and the utilization of tools that are shared in each session. Accountability is essential to growth and change, and our work together is designed to help you stay connected to the goals and changes you want to make. We’ll explore and challenge limiting beliefs, look at areas that might be a blind spot for you, and examine your core values. The bulk of the conversation is generated by you. The more you talk, the clearer your picture becomes, and by the close of each session, you will have a focal point for the space between sessions along with tools to help you navigate that time period.
Nurit Amichai's experience working with the Jewish community
I live and work in Israel, where all of my clients are Jewish, and working with the Jewish community has become an important part of my work. As an immigrant myself, I have first-hand knowledge of the challenges facing women who immigrate to Israel and are trying to find their balance. Whether it’s settling into the rhythm of life here, navigating the changes that come with immigration, or preparing to find work, I have had the pleasure of working with Jewish women, and some men, who are navigating the complexities of life in Israel.
Another facet of my work with the Jewish community has been shaped by the profound impact of more than 1,000 days of war since October 7, 2023. Everyone has been impacted by the situation, and despite our efforts to be resilient and “okay,” the reality is that we’re not fully okay. I believe there is value in acknowledging that reality while also focusing on what we can do to move forward in our daily lives. Although I am not a therapist, I am equipped to help my clients focus on creating habits that can help them live their daily lives with less stress and more power. My goal is to help you find that balance, reconnect with your own inner wisdom, and create meaningful change in the life you are living today.
