How To
What makes life coaching different than therapy?
Therapy is designed for people who are stuck or need help moving forward. Life Coaching is a way to get out of your current situation and help you reach the goals you set for tomorrow.
Life Coaching is based on the belief that we all have unlimited potential and that our greatest asset is not the skills we possess but how well we use those skills. We believe that helping clients develop these skills can make them happier, healthier, and wealthier.
We believe there's a significant difference between coaching and therapy. While therapy focuses on solving problems, coaching focuses instead on building strengths.
Therapists often focus on symptoms such as depression, anxiety, anger, etc., while coaches focus on strengths such as resilience, optimism, confidence, self-awareness, etc. They both focus on change.
The difference is that therapists are trained in fixing problems and coaches to build strength. When someone goes to counseling, they might feel down about themselves and believe that talking to another coach will help them feel better. This is false.
Coaches ask clients questions in order to uncover their answers. For example, what do you enjoy doing? Or, you could ask yourself "Who would it be without limitations?"
They aren't trying to tell clients what they should do. They assist clients in discovering what makes them happy. They see the whole person. This includes their mind, body, spirit, emotions and relationships. - instead of focusing solely on the problem.
In addition to being more effective than traditional therapies, life coaching has another advantage: it's cheaper.
Therapy can take several sessions per week over a period of months, or even years. A good therapist charges between $50-$100 per session. You could spend thousands on therapy if you only need one session per calendar month.
Life coaching is a fraction more expensive than regular consulting. A coach meets with you every two weeks. Many people can afford life coaching because it is cheaper.
