Frequently Asked Questions
What is Life Coaching?
1
Life Coaching is a partnership that opens up opportunities for self-inquiry, self-understanding and growth. It is a learning and developmental model that uses thoughtful questions and observations to inspire the creative thought process and evoke awareness.
How is Life Coaching different from Psychotherapy and Counseling, Mentoring or Consulting?
2
Life Coaching is based first and foremost on a partnership. The client decides the topic, direction and depth of the conversation. This person-centered approach allows the client’s views, beliefs and values to be the guiding path. It is a model that focuses on the present and then forward movement. It differs from psychotherapy and counseling by not digging into or unearthing the past. A life coach is NOT trained to support a client through addictions or mental health disorders. Also differing from mentoring, life coaching is not used for teaching or passing on knowledge. Instead, a life coach provides a mirror to allow the client to gain self-knowledge and understanding in the way that is best for the client. Consulting services happen with an expert in a specific field. In life coaching, the client is the expert in their life’s choices and its direction.

What makes you different?

Every human being walks a unique path. This path enhances their innate skills and gifts that can, in time, be used in service to the wider community. In my About page, I describe how my path led me first in biology and then in multiple dabbling years through the feminine realm of understanding. These life experiences have opened me to view life through the symbolic language of a dance. This dance with nature, cycles and synchronicity has created my coaching approach that is more intuitive and subtle. Sometimes, things take time. Some things need more time to root, simmer, digest and transform. That is okay and normal. I am patient and present to the long-term empowering growth process that comes from deep inner work and inquiry.
