Coaching is different from counseling and coaching is not appropriate for clinical concerns. My coaching work is completely seperate from my work as a clinician. Many clinicians make extraordinary life coaches because the basic skill set is the same, however, additional training is needed to practice life coaching.
The coaching experience is truly rewarding for both coach and client. I offer a free consultation for potential coaching clients to assess their readiness for change and the appropriateness of a coaching relationship for their goal.
