FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Mental Health and Wellness Coaching?
Coaching is a supportive process that helps you improve emotional well-being, build resilience, and create healthy habits for a balanced life. Coaches focus on self-awareness, stress management, and personal growth, empowering you to make sustainable changes. While they offer guidance and accountability, they do not diagnose or treat mental health conditions.
How is coaching different from therapy?
Therapy typically emphasizes the past and how it influences your current mental health. In contrast, coaching takes a comprehensive approach, addressing all facets of your life. Together, we explore not only your immediate concerns but also the underlying beliefs, self-awareness, behavioral patterns, and lifestyle choices that shape your overall well-being. The coaching process is strengths-based, forward-focused, and collaborative, aiming to foster positive and sustainable changes for your overall wellness.
It's important to note that coaching is not a replacement for working with a mental health professional for diagnosing and treating mental health disorders.
Who can benefit from coaching?
Anyone looking to improve their emotional well-being, manage stress, build resilience, or make positive lifestyle changes can benefit. Coaching is ideal for those who feel stuck, want to enhance self-awareness, or need guidance in reaching personal and wellness goals.
What topics can I address in coaching sessions?
Topics may include stress management, work-life balance, self-care, emotional resilience, mindfulness, healthy habits, relationships, and personal growth. Sessions are tailored to your specific needs and goals.
Can coaching help with anxiety or stress?
Yes, coaching can provide tools to manage anxiety and stress more effectively.
Can coaching be combined with therapy or other treatments?
Absolutely. Coaching can complement therapy, medical treatments, or other wellness programs by focusing on goal-setting, personal growth, and creating actionable plans for everyday life.
