Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Therapy and Life Coaching?
+
Therapy and life coaching serve different purposes, though both can provide meaningful support.
​
Therapy is typically focused on mental health, emotional healing, trauma, and diagnosing or treating psychological conditions. Licensed therapists help individuals process past experiences and manage emotional or clinical concerns.
​
Life coaching is future-focused and centered around personal growth, clarity, goal setting, accountability, and creating actionable steps toward desired changes.
​
Coaching is not a substitute for therapy or mental health treatment, but it can be a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance, direction, confidence, and personal development.
What types of problems can you help with?

Goal setting, time management, building confidence, career and academic guidance, emotional resilience, social skills, relationship building, managing negative patterns, accountability, emotional wellness, overcoming distractions and procrastination.
