Choosing between coaching and counseling

Coaching vs. Counseling:
Choosing What Is Right for You

Coaching and counseling share many similarities, both guiding you toward self-discovery and supporting personal growth and change. However, a key distinction lies in their focus on time. Coaching predominantly centers on the future, asking questions like, “Where, who, and what do you want to be?” On the other hand, counseling delves into the past, exploring, “Where, who, and what were you, and how does that affect you now?”

While counseling focuses on healing,
coaching focuses on fulfillment.

If you find yourself uncertain about whether counseling, coaching, or a blend of both is best for you, please simply reach out to me. I can expand upon these differences and help you make an informed decision that best meets your needs and can be of the most help to you.
