Coaching vs. Therapy: Learn the differences and understand which aligns with your needs


Listen Later

Ever found yourself wondering what the real difference between coaching and therapy is? You're not alone, I didn’t know how a coach could help until I looked into becoming one. And I certainly didn’t know the difference between the two. In this episode, I bring clarity to this very topic. 

This week's episode I discuss the power that coaching and therapy can have in our lives. 

I’ll cover:

  • The difference between a coach and a therapist
  • What a coach can and can’t do
  • How a therapist and a coach can help you. They are different, yet in some ways similar.
  • What makes a good coach and a good therapist
  • Different therapy terminologies such as bioenergetics analysis and somatic experiencing  

The world of coaching and therapy, though distinct, both aim to empower our personal growth. By understanding their unique roles, we can make informed decisions on which path suits our individual needs best. 

So, whether you're seeking guidance, curious about therapeutic approaches, or just on a journey of self-discovery, this episode promises a wealth of knowledge. 

Tune in as I identify and celebrate the differences between coaching and therapy, and their unparalleled contributions to the human psyche and soul.
