Do I need Coaching or Counseling?

There’s a lot of overlap between coaching and counseling.

In fact, in the past 20 years, my therapy work included a lot of coaching work. Once the trauma reactions are under control or resolved, a lot of the work is in helping people figure out how to move forward without repeating past patterns.

Often times it’s not the trauma itself that keeps us stuck, it’s the story we created afterward. Internal stories of how to stay safe often cause us to stay stuck instead.

Creating new habits and reinforcing effective patterns is the very essence of coaching. I help people to engage their faith and creativity more effectively so that they feel more authentic in every area of life.

That may or may not be what you need right now.

Take a look at the graphic below to help discern whether you need therapy first or if coaching is actually a better fit for this phase of your life.
