About Us

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. 

Coaching can be with a person, group of people, or entire organization. As a coach, your job is to hold space and engage in discovery and learning. Together, you and your client will co-create while engaging in strategic evaluation, feedback, cheerleading, and checking in while your client moves from thought into action and works toward a desired goal. Coaches are partners, co-creators, mirrors, and champions for clients. Clients are the ones who do all the heavy lifting in creating change. As coaches, you do not need to solve their problems but offer them a space for creation. Coaching doesn’t spend a great deal of time exploring the past. Instead, it primarily focuses on defining a future vision and developing a tactical plan to achieve those goals. A good coach understands theories and models of change and brings tools for self-inquiry, focus, and accountability to the table. 

Therapy is often closely related to coaching but has different processes, intentions, and necessary education and background. Therapy is used to treat mental health through psychotherapeutic methods and helping clients achieve and maintain baseline. Psychotherapy includes the treatment of depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other diagnosable conditions. Only therapists and counselors are qualified to determine and diagnose mental illnesses. 

Therapy supports those experiencing psychological anguish so acutely that it gets in the way of everyday life. The goal of therapy is to generate awareness that inspires healing so that those seeking support can return to life in a more functional way. Therapy works with the past to process healing, whereas coaching takes off where therapy leaves them toward future goals and forward-based actions and strategies. 

Counseling also supports clients experiencing acute and chronic psychological episodes such as anxiety and depression. It can help people work through emotional problems, self-esteem issues, alcohol and substance abuse, and marital challenges. 

Therapists can be great referral networks for coaches and have the ability to work closely together as a team. 

The length of a life coaching program depends on the individual and their goals. Some programs may last a few months, while others may last a year or more.
