How does coaching differ from therapy?

It is important to recognize the differences between coaching and therapy. Therapy concentrates on emotional trauma and past events. Coaching is focused on the present and is designed to help people get focused and make conscious choices to get them from where they are now to where they want to be.

Is this service confidential?

What do you work on with a coach?

How is coaching structured? (i.e. Over the phone? Sessions?)

The coaching relationship begins with the initial session. This session is done in person whenever possible and lasts about 1 hours. This session provides the basis for the coaching relationship. We’ll take a thorough look together at where you are now and begin to explore where you want to be. 

The ongoing sessions generally occur weekly and will range from 30-60 minutes depending on the clients customized coaching plan. These sessions take place outside, however phone coaaching is available upon request.

A two-three month commitment for the coaching relationship is highly recommended
