What is Psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy is a type of treatment that helps individuals process emotions, change behaviors, increase happiness, and ultimately overcome problems. Licensed psychotherapists use various psychological methods during regularly scheduled sessions to help you identify and process confusing emotions and behaviors; ultimately providing space for you to process and grow through life’s many difficult moments and situations.

What is Life Coaching?

Life Coaching is a process of enlightenment and empowerment. It helps you to have clarity and reach your goals faster than you would on your own. Coaching will help you overcome obstacles and fears. It provides accountability, a sounding board, a brainstorming partner, and someone to help you move into the implementation phase of your goals. Ultimately, life coaching helps you to attain higher levels of success in all areas of your life.

What is the difference between psychotherapy and life coaching?

• Life coaches are NOT licensed psychotherapists. However, a licensed therapist can also be a life coach. It’s against the law to practice therapy without a license.
• Therapists have the education and skill to assess and diagnose mental illnesses. The goal is to identify problems and reduce symptoms.
• Life coaches focus on helping clients explore and accomplish goals. Motivation, encouragement, empowerment, and goal setting are tools used in this process.
