How do I know if I need counseling services or coaching services? It’s easy to get a little confused about the two as they have a lot of similarities! Take a look at this quick comparison.
Therapy
Address mental health issues such as trauma, depression, or anxiety
Is about healing trauma or deep/core negative thinking patterns
Primarily looks at past and present events
Need help regulating and navigating through emotions
Coaching
Is not a substitute for mental health counseling
Is about setting goals or finding direction
Goals are more short-term
Primarily looks at present and future events
Good for feeling “stuck” in personal or professional life
