Life Coaching vs Therapy

  • Coaching does not provide any psychoeducational evaluations or diagnoses.

  • Coaching focuses on setting and achieving goals; therapy focuses on mental health and emotional healing.

  • Coaching deals with the “here and now” – the present; therapy deals with past pain or trauma that may be impacting your present.

  •  Coaching is for when you feel stuck and want to challenge yourself or step out of your comfort zone.

  • Coaching is for when you want to stop unhealthy habits and replace them with healthier choices. 

  • Coaching is for when you’re deliberating the next chapter of your life’s journey and would like guidance in identifying what is best for you.

  • Coaching is for those times when you acknowledge you have a lot to be grateful for but something is missing.

  • Coaching is when you need some help putting the puzzle pieces of your life together as they're just not fitting together.
