Coaching:

For people ready to turn insight into action.

Having worked in the corporate world, I’m very comfortable in the world of goal-setting, accountability, and taking action.

For this reason, I offer life coaching to select clients. Coaching is different than therapy in that it doesn’t focus too deeply on the past, it doesn’t treat trauma, and it doesn’t involve clinical care (we leave that to the therapists!)

“Is coaching right for me?”

Coaching may be a good fit if you’re feeling generally stable but want focused support around growth, clarity, or forward movement. It’s especially helpful if you’re navigating career decisions, identity shifts, burnout, or patterns that keep repeating—even when you understand them intellectually. Coaching is present- and future-oriented, practical, and collaborative, and works best for people who want structure, accountability, and insight without diving into deeper mental health treatment.

“How do I know if I need coaching or therapy?”

The difference often comes down to what you’re seeking support for. Therapy is typically the better fit if you’re feeling emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in long-standing patterns, impacted by trauma, or experiencing anxiety, depression, or distress that affects daily life. Coaching may be a good option if you feel generally stable but want clarity, direction, skill-building, or accountability around goals, transitions, or personal growth. If you’re unsure, that’s completely okay—many people benefit from a consultation to explore which approach will best support where you are right now.

“Since you’re a therapist, do you also incorporate therapy into coaching, or see coaching clients for therapy?”

While I’m trained as a therapist, I’m careful to keep coaching and therapy distinct. Coaching is not therapy, and coaching clients are not treated as therapy clients. Coaching focuses on present-day challenges, skill-building, and forward movement, while therapy involves mental health treatment and deeper emotional processing. If, during coaching, it becomes clear that therapy would be more supportive, I’ll name that transparently and help you explore appropriate next steps. Once someone becomes a coaching client, I’m unable to see them as a therapy client, according to industry law.
