What do you want to achieve in the next year by hiring a coach?

I'm a single 64 year old dad with a 22 year old son who has given up on everything. Ever since he graduated high school he's been basically doing nothing other than a couple jobs, that he quit, and has no idea what he wants to do with his life. I believe he's vaping cannabis, and playing PS4 most of the time he doesn't help around the house or listen to any of my recommendations I have a 529 plan for college funds that he hasn't even used or thought about using. Most of the time he's in his bedroom which is a complete mess, and rarely helps with anything around the house even when I ask. I will be retiring at 65 which is one year from now. I don't know what my son's going to do in life. On the positive side he has friends, he goes to the gym every day, and hasn't been in any trouble. My basic problem with him is, he doesn't get it. He doesn't understand that you have to put yourself out there in life and climb the ladder by starting with a vision of what he wants to do in life and then with a little sense of responsibility and ambition getting up every day and making it happen. He just walked off an Amazon delivery job without even giving his boss a notice. He said they were working him too hard. And he will simply just get another job. Well it hasn't happened yet, and I see no signs of him even looking for a job right now. The bottom line is my life is going to change in a big way when I turn 65, I will probably sell my house and move to a low income house in another state with lower taxes. I am beside myself with worries about him. I don't know what to do. I'm thinking that he needs some kind of evaluation by a psychologist and or a life coach. I'm looking for a reputable one that lives near me that can analyze and help him.

Tell us about yourself.

I'm a single dad age 64 retiring at age 65 and moving out of here. I've had a great career and I'm now a territory sales manager for a large international company. I work out of my home and own a home where my son and I live together. I am trying to raise my son myself after a divorce in 2015. Subsequently my ex-wife had a stroke and she's incapacitated and never able to work again. I've been doing all the parenting myself and raising my son since then. My son is all I have right now and I'm facing a lot of anxiety worrying about how clueless he is about how hard it is to find a career path if you don't have any real ambition to do so. With that said I'm reaching out and looking for a life coach or a psychologist I can analyze both me and my son and help us with this situation.
