Understanding Coaching vs. Therapy
What is Coaching?
Coaching is a forward-focused, goal-oriented partnership designed to help you unlock your potential, build new skills, and create meaningful change in your personal and professional life. As your coach, I work with you to identify what you want to achieve, develop actionable strategies, and hold you accountable as you move toward your goals.
Coaching is ideal for individuals who are:
- Functioning well but want to reach the next level
- Seeking clarity, confidence, or direction
- Ready to develop specific skills (communication, leadership, self-trust)
- Looking to create transformation in their relationships, career, or identity
What is Therapy?
Therapy (or counseling) is typically focused on healing emotional pain, processing trauma, diagnosing and treating mental health conditions, and addressing psychological symptoms. Therapists are licensed mental health professionals trained to work with clinical issues such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health diagnoses.
Key Differences:
- Focus: Coaching looks forward toward goals and growth; therapy often explores past experiences and emotional healing
- Scope: Coaching addresses performance, fulfillment, and personal development; therapy treats mental health conditions
- Regulation: Therapists are licensed healthcare providers; coaches are not required to be licensed (though many have certifications)
- Approach: Coaching is collaborative and action-oriented; therapy can be more exploratory and treatment-focused
Important Note: Coaching is not a substitute for therapy. If you’re experiencing symptoms of mental illness, significant emotional distress, trauma, or crisis, I encourage you to work with a licensed therapist. In some cases, coaching and therapy can complement each other beautifully — many of my clients work with both a therapist and a coach simultaneously.
Who This is For
You’re already a high performer — a senior leader, executive, or top-tier professional.
You’ve achieved a lot, but you know you could be:

Identity Reinvention Coaching for Women
The Deeper Purpose
For generations, women have been told who they should be: nurturing yet ambitious, feminine yet independent, selfless yet strong. Add family expectations, cultural traditions, societal trends, body image pressures, and professional expectations — and it’s no wonder so many women feel pulled in a thousand directions, wondering: Who am I really, outside of all these roles and judgments?
I believe every woman deserves the freedom to define herself on her own terms — beyond being a mother, wife, or other roles, beyond cultural scripts, beyond the way society critiques her body, and beyond the pressure to present a certain way professionally. My coaching gives women the space and tools to rediscover who they are, rebuild their confidence, and create a life that feels truly authentic and free.
My Approach
Through a supportive and structured process, I guide women to:
- Awaken – Recognize inherited family, cultural, and societal patterns (including appearance and career standards) that have shaped identity.
- Release – Let go of outdated beliefs, body image comparisons, and external expectations that no longer serve them.
- Redefine – Discover their authentic values, passions, and self-image — independent of what culture or industry says they should be.
- Empower – Build confidence in both personal and professional spaces, developing the flexibility and self-trust to show up authentically.
- Create – Design relationships, lifestyle, and goals that reflect their truest self — free of judgment, full of confidence.
This isn’t about fitting into a box or chasing perfection — it’s about becoming the author of your own story.

Confidentiality & Privacy
Your privacy and trust are paramount to our coaching relationship. All information shared during our sessions is kept strictly confidential. I adhere to professional coaching ethics and standards, which means what you share stays between us.
What This Means:
- Session content, personal details, and any materials you share remain private
- I do not discuss your coaching work with others unless you provide explicit written consent
- All digital communications, files, and session recordings (if applicable) are stored securely
- I use encrypted platforms for virtual sessions and text-based communication
Important Exceptions to Confidentiality:
While I maintain the highest level of confidentiality, there are legal and ethical exceptions where I may be required to breach confidentiality:
- If you disclose intent to harm yourself or others
- If there is suspected abuse or neglect of a child, elderly person, or dependent adult
- If required by court order or legal subpoena
Coaching is Not Therapy:
As a reminder, coaching does not fall under the same confidentiality protections as licensed mental health services (such as therapist-client privilege). However, I maintain professional ethics and treat all client information with the utmost respect and discretion.
Your Right to Privacy:
You have the right to ask questions about how your information is used and stored. If you ever have concerns about privacy or confidentiality, please bring them to our session — open communication is essential to building a trusting coaching relationship.
Ready to Begin?
If you’re ready to step into greater confidence, clarity, and authenticity — whether as a leader or as a woman redefining her identity — I’d be honored to support you.
