What is Life Coaching?

“Coaching is a thought-provoking and creative partnership that inspires clients to maximize their personal and professional potential, often unlocking previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.” International Coach Federation

Are Life Coaching and Therapy different?

Yes. Coaching is oriented to the present and the future. While coaching is not therapy, it may feel like a healing experience. Coaching will help you to identify your goals, deepest desires and hopes by encouraging your creativity, self-exploration and planning skills. Therapy, on the other hand, involves the diagnosis and treatment of mental health conditions including mood disorders, addiction and trauma. Therapy typically involves healing wounds that occurred in the past related to traumatic injury and which contribute to subsequent pain, suffering and persistent mental health problems.

What can Life Coaching address?

Are you a coach or therapist?

I have the education, experience and expertise to practice both.  

My certification as a Transformational Life Coach is from Leadership That Works, Coaching for Transformation program, accredited by the International Coach Federation. When we are engaged in a coaching relationship I use coaching skills to help you to achieve your life goals.
