What is Coaching?

The International Coaching Federation defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential, which is particularly important in today’s uncertain and complex environment.

Coaching can help you in any area of your life. Some of the most common areas are:

  • Career
  • Relationships
  • Relocation
  • Health
  • Personal Growth
  • Finances
  • Physical Environment

A client wanting a change or up to something big will naturally encounter resistance as they move toward fulfilling their dreams and goals. I hold them accountable, support them in their process and remind them of their vision.

Coaching sessions typically take place on a weekly or bi-monthly basis in person or over the phone.

What is the difference between Coaching and Therapy?

Professional coaching focuses on setting goals and moving forward to fulfill those goals. Coaches work with healthy clients desiring a better situation, whereas therapists typically work to heal the pain and dysfunction within an individual. Therapy deals mainly with a person’s past and trauma that seeks healing. Coaching deals mostly with a person’s present and seeks to help them design a more desirable future. In therapy, the therapist has the answers. In coaching, the coach helps the client discover their own answers. The emphases in a coaching relationship are on action, accountability, and follow through to serve as a springboard to purposeful living.
