1. Coaching vs Counseling?

Please note that coaching is not counseling. Therapist typically focus on problems routed in the past, mental health diagnosis’, and their main purpose is for healing. If at any time during a session there seems to be a need for a therapist instead of coaching, we will discuss a referral at that time.

Coaching is more helping the client to move from an already healthy state of mind to living out your full potential.  It’s really a partnership where we design a plan based on your agenda – coaching takes what’s on the inside and translates it into outer goals that you accomplish step-by-step.

For other types of coaching, people may find it beneficial to work with a coach for a longer period.
