How To
What is life coaching like therapy?
Therapy is for people who have problems and need help to move forward. Life Coaching will help you move past where you are and to what you want for the future.
Life coaching is founded on the belief, that every person has unlimited potential. That our greatest assets are not the skills that we have but how well those skills are used. These skills will make clients happier, healthier, wealthier, according to us.
We also believe there is an important distinction between 'therapy and coaching. Therapy is focused on fixing problems while coaching focuses upon developing strengths.
Therapists tend to focus on symptoms like depression, anxiety and anger. Coaches focus on strengths such resilience, optimism confidence, self-awareness and self-awareness. Both of them 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. But this isn't true.
Coaching is a way to get clients' answers. Ask, for example, "What are you passionate about?" Or, "What would you do if you had no limits?"
They aren't trying to tell clients what they should do. They work with clients to help them find what makes the most of their lives. In other words, they look at the whole person. - rather than focusing solely upon the problem.
Life coaching offers a unique advantage over traditional therapies in that it is more efficient and cheaper.
The average therapy session lasts several weeks, sometimes for years. A good therapist will charge between $50 and $100 per session. Even if you only have one session per month you could be spending thousands of dollars annually on therapy.
You can have a life coach work with you for only a fraction the cost. And because life coaching is less expensive, many people can afford it.
