Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between therapy and Coaching?
Coaching can be a great resource for folks who are wanting to work towards future goals and build skills to help navigate the present. As coaches, we are informed by our knowledge and experience as a therapist, however in coaching work, we are not able to provide assessment, diagnosis or treatment of mental health conditions. Individual and Relationship coaching takes a solution-focused and present/future oriented approach to problems. It does not treat mental health or involve therapy. It does not include an assessment for mental health diagnosis and therefore, is not covered by health insurance. Coaching services are not meant to take the place of local mental health resources, support, or treatment if those services are necessary.

what is the difference between an intensive and coaching?
Relationship intensives can last anywhere from 3-6 hours. The length depends on your needs and how much time you are wanting to spend learning and practicing skills. Some folks decide that a intensive is more appropriate for their situation because scheduling a one-time service is more feasible. Some decide on an intensive when they want a deep dive in a short amount of time because there is some urgency to receive guidance for the relationship. Reach out for a free 15-minute consultation if you are not sure.
