Frequently Asked Questions 

What Is Life Coaching?

​

Life coaching is a professional partnership that helps you move from where you are now to where you truly want to be. It’s forward-focused, goal-driven, and rooted in uncovering your strengths. A life coach helps you identify what’s keeping you stuck, clarify your goals, and create a plan for meaningful, lasting change.

People often seek life coaching when they’re:

• Feeling overwhelmed or anxious
   

• Struggling to break old patterns
   

• Ready for a life transition
   

• Wanting more fulfillment or purpose
   

• Craving support and accountability
   

A life coach doesn’t diagnose or treat — they empower you to grow, shift perspective, and build the life you envision.

Counseling is a therapeutic relationship focused on helping you heal, unpack your past if

professional counselor helps you work through challenges, build coping skills, and move toward
emotional wellness with support and structure.

Counseling is often the right fit if you’re dealing with:
● Persistent anxiety
● Depression

● Trauma
● Grief
● Relationship wounds
● Emotional overwhelm

It’s a safe space for deep healing, self-understanding, and personal growth.

 Coaching vs. Counseling: What’s the Difference?

Counseling helps you heal.
Coaching helps you grow.

Counseling is ideal when you need support with past experiences or emotional pain.
Coaching is ideal when you’re ready to set goals, make changes, and move forward.
Both can be powerful — and many clients benefit most from a blend of education, support,
mindset work, and clear strategies. My practice integrates elements of both, always guided by
what serves you best.
