Coaching and Therapy
What's the difference between coaching and therapy? While therapy often delves into past experiences and emotions, coaching takes a forward-looking stance, aiming to guide you toward your goals. In our coaching sessions, we'll collaboratively navigate both the practical and emotional dimensions, creating a roadmap for your personal and relational growth.
Focus and Orientation
-
Coaching: Centers on current goals, personal development, and future aspirations.
-
Therapy: Often explores past experiences and emotions to address psychological concerns.
Nature of the Relationship
-
Coaching: A collaborative partnership where the coach and client work together toward the client's goals.
-
Therapy: May have a more clinical dynamic, with the therapist guiding the process.
Problem Solving
-
Coaching: Emphasizes practical problem-solving and skill development.
-
Therapy: Often explores emotions and psychological patterns without an immediate focus on skills.
Communication Style

Holistic vs Clinical Approach

Therapy: Clinical approach often focused on mental health symptoms and diagnosis.
Personal Perspective

Coaching: As a coach, I can provide perspective based on my own personal experiences, enhancing the collaborative nature of the relationship.
