Coaching vs Psychotherapy
- There are different kinds of coaching -Business -Parenting -Life -Health -Spiritual
- Coaching does not treat mental health disorders or do mental health evaluations
- Confidentiality is different with coaching than medical or law confidentiality
- Life coaching is to create, develop and facilitate your personal, professional or business goals.
- Life coaching is to develop and to implement a strategy, plan, and/or program that is designed to achieve your goals
- In coaching, you are motivated and take responsibility for all your actions and decisions
- There are certification programs for coaches, but not regulated as it is for mental health professionals
- Psychotherapy or mental health counseling can diagnosis mental health issues and disorders
- Psychotherapy looks more at your past and/or family of origin issues
- Mental health professional attends graduate program (either master's level or doctoral level), depending on state has a specific amount of therapy hours to achieve under supervision, then can take licensure test
- Mental health professional can offer both types of services but can NOT treat the same person under each service
