What is a MetaCoach

A metacoach typically works with clients to help them develop self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and other skills that are necessary for effective self-coaching. They also facilitate clients for how to use specific techniques, such as reframing, to change their thought patterns and improve their overall well-being.
