How is coaching different from counseling? Coaching is a goal driven approach to solve problems and identify future aspirations. Coaching is a true partnership where the client is the expert on what they want and we collaborate on the best route to get there. Coaches use strategies to help clients improve their skills to reach their goals. The focus for coaching is where people are at today and what is blocking them for reaching their goals tomorrow.
Counseling is an introspective process for determining underlying or adverse thought, mood, relational and behavioral patterns using psychotherapeutic approaches for reflection and growth. To learn more about counseling see our counseling page.
Coaching may be the right approach if you:
- Want tips and tools for improving your life
- Have a specific problem you want to solve or goal you are seeking to achieve
- Want to improve your relational skills
- Want a personalized plan for your success
Coaching can take place in person, online, or at a designated workplace.
