Welcome to our interview series, Clisver Alvarez. To begin, can you introduce yourself to our audience and share the journey that led you to become a mental health coach and wellness creator?
I’m Clisver Alvarez, a mental health coach, writer, and founder of Blue Greis Lifestyle. My work grew out of my own healing journey through anxiety and emotional burnout. What began as survival turned into helping others find emotional stability.
You describe yourself as a mental health coach who creates relatable, high-impact wellness content. What does “relatable” truly mean to you when it comes to mental health?
Relatable means honest and human. I talk about mental health the way people really experience it — feeling overwhelmed, tired, and trying their best.
You’ve spoken about how your own mental health struggles shaped your path. What was the moment that made you decide to turn your pain into purpose?
I turned pain into purpose when I realized I was done just surviving and wanted to help others break free too.
How did your personal healing journey strengthen your belief in mental health coaching?
Healing showed me that real change is possible with the right tools.
What inspired you to choose coaching as your primary way of helping others?
Coaching allows me to walk alongside people as they rebuild.
Over the last three years, you’ve worked closely with many individuals. What are the most common challenges people come to you with?
People come feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, and searching for clarity.
Can you share a breakthrough story that deeply reaffirmed your “why” as a coach?
I’ve seen people transform from hopeless to confident — that’s why I do this.
Reducing stigma is a core part of your mission. Why do you believe mental health stigma still exists, and how can content creators help change that narrative?
Stigma exists because people were taught to hide pain.
As a writer and mental health coach for Blue Greis Lifestyle, how does writing play a role in emotional healing?
Writing helps bring emotions into clarity.

Self-awareness, emotional regulation, and compassion matter most.
Through one-on-one coaching, online courses, and written content, how do you personalize your approach to meet different needs?
I personalize everything by listening first.
Many people struggle to stay consistent with mental wellness habits. What advice do you offer to help them stay committed?
Consistency comes from small, real-life steps.
Supporting others emotionally can be demanding. How do you protect and nurture your own mental well-being?
I protect my mental health with boundaries and rest.
What is one misconception about mental health coaching that you wish more people understood?
Coaching isn’t just talking, it’s transformation.
Your journals on Amazon have resonated with many readers. Can you share the importance of journaling in mental health and how your journals help people process emotions and build self-awareness?
