Therapy vs. Coaching
Wondering whether you want therapy or coaching services? No worries. Book a complimentary 20-minute consultation and let’s find out. Here is a quick guide on the difference.
Therapy
Explores both past and present. Clinical oriented diagnosis and mental health dysfunction. Looks into the why and how.
Coaching
Aimed at helping you achieve results. Future oriented, performance driven. Looks only at what’s needed to change and progress forward.
Comparing Therapy and Coaching
While both therapy and coaching aim to support individuals in leading fulfilling lives, they do so through different lenses. Therapy addresses mental health and emotional healing, often delving into past experiences to resolve present issues.
Coaching, on the other hand, is future-focused, guiding individuals towards achieving specific goals and unlocking their potential. Understanding these distinctions can help individuals choose the right support based on their unique needs and objectives.
