How does Therapy compare to Coaching?

     Please don't get the two confused. Life Coaching is not Therapy, and Therapy is not Life Coaching.

     From a professional level, there is a distinct difference. Life Coaches are "teachers", they work with clients who are looking to improve there life, looking to put the past behind them and move forward. They work with clients who need help getting more out of life, not dwelling on the past.

     Therapist and other mental health professional work with patients who have "issues" or other deep seeded problems functioning on a daily basis. These professionals are able to "diagnose your condition". Coaches never diagnose or place medical names on any behavior.

     Recently the Life Coach profession has seen a large increase in mental health professional leaving their professions and becoming Life Coaches. The more you understand what a Life Coach does, the more you can see the distinct difference between the two professions.

     With The Healthy Life Program you will understand that the concept of Life Coaching developed by Life Coach College is a very natural holistic alternative to therapy. Why deal with the past, it will always be the past. Now is the time to learn how to put that behind us and move on. Life is precious, better start enjoying it now!
