Can coaching be effective for remote or international clients?
I coach online and globally mindfully considering the different timezones.
How can coaching complement other personal development efforts, such as therapy?
Therapy typically focuses on addressing and healing past emotional wounds, mental health challenges, and unresolved issues, often delving into the root causes of problems. On the other hand, coaching is future-oriented, centered around goal-setting, skill development, and achieving personal or professional objectives. Combining therapy and coaching can offer a comprehensive approach, leveraging therapy's emotional insight with coaching's forward momentum, providing a holistic strategy for individuals seeking both healing and proactive growth. This dual approach can foster resilience, self-awareness, and lasting positive change.
