Frequently Asked Questions
Whether you’re brand-new to life coaching or simply exploring your options, this page will help you understand what to expect as you begin your journey.
What is a Life Coach?
A Life Coach is a trained professional who guides you through personal growth, goal-setting, and life transitions. Coaching focuses on clarity, confidence, mindset, and taking intentional action. Unlike therapy, coaching is future-focused, solution-oriented, and centered on helping you create positive changes in your daily life.
How is coaching different from therapy?
Therapy often focuses on healing past emotional wounds or clinical concerns. Life coaching focuses on your present and future — identifying goals, building confidence, breaking patterns, and taking bold steps toward a better you. Coaching is not a replacement for therapy, but it can complement it beautifully.
What happens in a coaching session?
Each session is a supportive conversation where we explore your goals, thoughts, strengths, and challenges with compassion and honesty. You’ll gain clarity, identify patterns, and walk away with perspective, encouragement, and actionable steps that move you forward.
Do I need to have specific goals before starting?
Not at all. Many clients begin without clear goals — they just know something needs to change. During coaching, we uncover your values, strengths, and aspirations together, so your path becomes clearer as we go.
Are sessions confidential?
Yes. Your privacy, comfort, and trust are always the highest priority. Everything shared in coaching remains confidential.
How long does coaching take?
That depends on you and your goals. Some clients come for short-term support during a transition, while others choose ongoing coaching to continue their growth journey. You are always free to set the pace and commitment level that feels right.
What is your coaching approach?
My approach is grounded in compassion, clarity, and courage. I combine deep listening with guided reflection, helping you uncover your strengths, challenge limitations, and take bold steps toward your personal growth.
What is the first step to get started?
The best place to begin is by filling out the Start Your Journey form or reaching out through the Contact page. You’ll receive a warm, personalized response to schedule your first session or consultation
Is coaching right if I’m going through something difficult?
Yes — coaching can be especially helpful during challenging times. It provides clarity, emotional support, and practical steps to help you move forward with strength and courage.
If you’re dealing with something beyond the scope of coaching, we can discuss appropriate resources.
How should I prepare for my first session?
You don’t need to prepare anything specific. Just arrive with openness and honesty. Together, we’ll explore what you want, what you need, and how coaching can best support your growth.
