How To
How is life coaching different from therapy?
Therapy is for people who have problems and need help to move forward. Life coaching helps you get beyond where you are now and move towards the future you desire.
Life coaching is based on the belief we all have unlimited potential. Our greatest asset is not our skills but how we use them. We believe that helping clients develop these skills can make them happier, healthier, and wealthier.
We also believe that coaching and therapy are two different things. Therapy is focused on fixing problems while coaching focuses upon developing strengths.
Therapists often focus on symptoms such as depression, anxiety, anger, etc., while coaches focus on strengths such as resilience, optimism, confidence, self-awareness, etc. They both focus on change.
The difference is that therapists are trained in fixing problems and coaches to build strength. If someone is feeling down, they may feel that they can get help by talking to someone else. This is false.
To help clients find their answers, coaches ask them questions. You might ask, "What is your passion?" Or, "Who would be you if there were no limitations?"
They don’t try to tell customers what to do. They assist clients in discovering what makes them happy. They help people see their whole self - the body, mind and spirit. Instead of focusing only on the problem.
Life coaching is not only more effective than traditional therapies but it also has the added advantage of being cheaper.
The average therapy session lasts several weeks, sometimes for years. A good therapist will charge between $50 and $100 per session. For a single session per month, therapy could cost you thousands of dollars.
You can have a life coach work with you for only a fraction the cost. Life coaching is affordable so many people can afford it.
