What is the Difference between Coaching and Therapy?
Coaching can be distinguished from therapy in a number of ways. First, Coaching is a profession that supports personal and professional growth and development based upon individual-initiated change in pursuit of specific actionable outcomes. Coaching is forward moving and future focused.
Life Empowerment Coaching is Focused on the Present moment. The emphasis in a coaching relationship is on action, accountability, and follow through.
Therapy, on the other hand, deals with healing pain, dysfunction and conflict within an individual, or a relationship between individuals.The focus is often on resolving difficulties from the past which hamper an individual's emotional functioning in the present.
