Traditional therapy’s outcome is healing pain, resolving past trauma, and improving relationships. Its purpose is to improve our emotional functioning and to help us with insights that then broaden our behavioral choices.
Coaching is a step-by-step process that helps people like you create “life games” worth playing and goals worth playing for. You choose specific goals and produce measurable outcomes. Examples of goals include earning more money, opening your own business, writing a book, traveling, running a marathon, going on a spiritual retreat, or learning to play the piano. You, not your coach partner, decide the agenda and evaluate your performance. Yet the process offers you the breathing room to achieve those goals which you once thought were out of your reach...with clarity, focus, and ease.
