Coaching vs Therapy
How to know where to start on your healing journey
What's the Difference?
Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. Depending on where you are on your journey, different forms of support can meet different needs.
​
Therapy is a powerful path for those navigating clinical mental health conditions like depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, or unresolved trauma.
​
Coaching, on the other hand, is for those who may not need clinical treatment—but are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or out of alignment. If you're ready to release old patterns, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and start moving forward with clarity and confidence, coaching might be the perfect next step.
​
You don’t have to choose just one.
In fact, therapy and coaching often work beautifully together.
Methodlogy
Coaching is focused, forward-moving support designed to help you grow, evolve, and step into your highest self.
Just like therapy has different methods, coaching comes in many forms too—whether it’s executive coaching, wellness coaching, leadership, or transformational healing and empowerment (like what I offer).
​
Where therapy is designed to treat mental illness and help you process life-altering experiences using modalities like EMDR or CBT, coaching is about helping you shift your energy, gain clarity, and take aligned action toward the life you’re here to live.
​
Both have their place. One isn’t better than the other—they’re just different kinds of support for different phases of your journey.
Which one is right for you?
Whether you’re working with a therapist or a coach, the goal is the same: to help you heal, grow, and move forward.
We’re both here to hold space for your transformation—just in different ways.
​
Think of it like choosing a specialist. If you had a persistent sinus issue, you’d see an ENT because that’s their zone of genius. It’s the same with emotional and spiritual support.
​
Every coach and therapist has their own approach and area of expertise.
So when you’re looking for guidance, choose someone who resonates with you—someone who understands your needs and speaks your language.
Because your healing is sacred. And you deserve support that feels aligned.
