What is the difference?

Maggie Kelly

What is the difference between a life coach and a therapist? Life coaching is a partnership with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires you to maximize your personal and professional potential. Coaching is about empowering you to come up with your own answers. Someone may come to a life coach to achieve a goal or to change, enhance or improve some area of their life. Consequently, coaching takes the client from where they are to where the way to be.

Coaching is also results-oriented and therefore focuses on making changes in the present. The client creates a plan of action to move forward and the coach then holds the client accountable to follow through with that plan of action. During the process, common blocks and obstacles are addressed. So, what is the difference?

Therapy vs. Coaching

Therapy or counseling is about healing deep emotional issues, which usually arise from the past. Perhaps someone has been abused or experienced some degree of trauma. Perhaps someone keeps talking about their family and how their family holds them back.

Certainly, others may have a mental illness to the extent that it affects their functioning in day-to-day life. Some of these illnesses like depression, anxiety, bipolar, and others need the help of a psychotherapist.

Certified Spiritual, Life, and Mediation Coach Maggie Kelly combines life coaching with meditation to help her clients tune in and get clear to their life’s purpose. Once the client begins to get in touch with what it is they truly want for their lives, they are much better equipped to create a plan of action to which Maggie can hold them accountable.

Maggie offers complimentary 30-minute Introductory Life Coaching sessions via Zoom. Let’s have a chat to see if we might be a good fit.
