Although these helping professions are complimentary there are some distinctions to consider. First, the professional’s role and their perspective of the “patient” or “client” is significantly different. Secondly, what is the “patient” or “client” wanting or needing from the professional.  

People hire coaches to get results on their projects, and personal and professional goals. As a coach, I offer my clients velocity and accountability so they can get the results they are after. If a client is tempted to quit because they are scared or overwhelmed, I will be there to stand for their greatness and believe in them even if they cannot believe in themselves.

A coach is a partner. From a coaching perspective, there is nothing wrong with the client. Nor is there something to be fixed or improved upon. We all are born whole, complete and perfect beings while in our innate Essence. Through powerful conversations and asking thought-provoking questions, a whole world of possibilities opens up to reveal new awareness and transformed perspectives. Couple these shifts in consciousness with intentional actions to produce the desired outcomes.   

    

Whether you want to change your career, deepen your relationships, make more money, or fulfill something in life that is missing, coaching with me can take your life from just getting by to being empowered, lit up, and alive not only with the results you are able to create, but who you become in the process.

We all are powerful creators but most of us are afraid to own our greatness. We get shut down and stopped in life because of our fears, considerations and circumstances. As your coach, I believe anything is possible for you to BE, DO or HAVE so long as you are willing to be in committed action to create it.

Counseling and therapy are based in the medical model of pathology with the intention to heal people from their disease. You become a “patient” that needs a diagnosis and a treatment plan in order to be healed. The premise is to fix what is wrong with you so you can feel better.

Consultants are hired for their expertise. If you need advice, an expert’s opinion and/or solutions to prevent or resolve a problem you might consider hiring a consultant.
