Coaching and Counseling

By March 13, 2013No Comments

Coaching or counseling, what do you want, or need?? Life coaching is a practice that helps people identify and achieve personal goals. Life coaches assist clients by using a variety of tools and techniques. Life coaching draws inspiration from disciplines such as sociology, psychology, positive adult development and career counseling.? Relationship counseling is the process of counseling the parties of a relationship in an effort to recognize and to better manage or reconcile troublesome differences and repeating patterns of distress. The relationship involved may be between members of a family or a couple (see also family therapy), employees or employers in a workplace, or between a professional and a client.? Future, Present, and Past are important personal and perhaps couple topics to discuss and explore with either coaching or counseling.? If you are at a place of relative relational health, coaching might be the best option to consider, as it can focus on forward thinking, planning, implementing, and evaluating.? If you are at a place where you need reconciliation of repeating patterns of distress, counseling is probably the better choice.? Either choice will involve change at some significant levels.? Are you ready?? Get set!? Go!
