Therapy, or Coaching, or both?

Therapy and coaching may have overlapping elements. It's important to research what is right for you and your needs. Ask questions, and be honest about the depths of your individual goals. Sometimes we will need to dig deep and explore heavy stuff. This is when a trained therapist can really help unpack your messy closets, sort through what you need and don't need, and help you heal through unresolved parts of your life. Coaches can help catalyze change in a different way. We don't work directly with severe mental health concerns, but we can help encourage change by identifying what your strengths are, and new pathways on becoming more successful in your life. Sometimes you can work with both a therapist and a coach. Sometimes you'll need to work through stuff with a therapist before working with a coach. It's all individual, and being ready to ask questions, understanding when it feels right to go deeper, or when to take a more directional approach with a coach takes time.
