Meet Rob Jackson and Icebergology
About Rob Jackson and the Icebergology Coaching Academy
Welcome to Rob Jackson's Icebergology Coaching Academy, where I focus on transforming lives by helping you, your family, or your relationship embrace a true identity rooted in Christ. I’m Rob Jackson, founder of the Academy, and for over 40 years, I’ve helped individuals, couples, and families find hope, healing, and purpose through the Iceberg Model of Identity, Discipleship, and Spiritual Formation™—a model born from my own journey of transformation.
The Birth of Icebergology™
My journey into coaching and counseling began with personal struggles. Starting in middle school and lasting through my junior year in college, I battled a debilitating panic disorder. My daily life was marked by overwhelming anxiety. It was during those dark and difficult years that God revealed profound truths about identity, emotional healing, and spiritual growth. Over the last 40-plus years, I developed the Iceberg Model™, refining it as I gained deeper insights into these areas.
Through this journey, I also discovered the depth of God's love for us—experiencing firsthand that He desires a genuine friendship with each of us. This realization, that God truly loves us, continues to shape the foundation of my coaching as I help others explore their own identity and relationship with Him.
The Iceberg Model of Identity, Discipleship, and Spiritual Formation™
The Iceberg Model™ serves as the cornerstone for all my coaching and training. Just as only a small portion of an iceberg is visible above the surface, much of our inner life—our beliefs, traumas, and unresolved emotional pain—remains hidden below. The Iceberg Model™ helps you dive beneath the surface of your visible struggles to uncover those hidden layers. By focusing on spiritual growth, emotional healing, and relational health, I aim to bring lasting transformation to your life, from the inside out.
Through this model, I’ll guide you in discovering how deep-rooted issues shape your behaviors, helping you break free from old patterns and walk confidently in your identity in Christ.
