The Benefits of Coaching

Where should you begin when seeking professional guidance? Coaching is an ideal choice for increasing self-awareness, and removing obstacles to establishing your goals and making tangible progress towards achieving them. The range of options out there can be overwhelming – let’s break them down so you can make an informed choice.  

What is a coach, and what sets them apart from other professionals such as mentors or therapists? 

●       Coaches focus on visioning, success, the present and moving into the future, and they work with clients across a range of industries. A coach may explore the past or emotions of their client in the service of acknowledging and understanding the client’s origin stories being told about the present and future.

●       Mentors are largely career-focused and offer guidance and support within a specific industry.

●       Therapists are healthcare professionals who are qualified to make diagnoses and help patients work through their emotions and the past in order to understand the present.

●       Consultants offer recommendations based on their significant expertise within a particular field.  

How Do I Know If I Need a Coach?

If you’re feeling stuck and/or want to grow beyond your fears to become more empowered and confident, an investment in coaching is the perfect step for you.

A coach will partner with you to harness your potential, access your inner wisdom, identify strengths and shine a light on the ways you hold yourself back. This will help you to work through both internal and external barriers that might be affecting your happiness and goals.
