What are the differences between psychotherapy and coaching?

This is a wonderful question that I am often asked. SO Life coaching is a profession that is profoundly different from psychotherapy, or counseling. A coach looks at your present situation to help you create the future you desire, while a therapist looks at your past to help you manage your present. Since I am trained in both we can create a process that addresses your personal goals and transitions in life.

The Power of Integration: Therapy & Coaching Combined

My unique approach blends the depth of psychotherapy with the forward momentum of coaching, offering you the best of both worlds:
As Your Therapist:
  • I help you transform past patterns into present wisdom
  • We create a safe alliance for deep emotional healing
  • Together we remove energetic blocks holding you back
  • You'll discover what you truly want beneath surface desires

As Your Coach:
  • We focus on actionable steps toward your desired future
  • You'll develop practical strategies to achieve your goals
  • We harness your individual strengths for lasting change
  • You'll learn to maintain positive momentum independently

This integrated approach means you receive both healing and practical growth tools. Rather than simply coping with change, you'll learn to thrive through it. We'll address both immediate goals and deeper patterns, helping you create lasting transformation defined by your authentic vision of success.

We will explore and uncover the true you. Once you get clear on your essence and purpose, you can decide to live from intention and your life will change. This type of work will identify what is psychologically impacting you and keeping you stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. These patterns can stem from childhood or past experiences, life changing events, or just realizing that you want to change how you live your life. 

During our sessions we will address what gives your life meaning and what makes you feel joyful. We will work on building your confidence and empowering you to make positive changes in your life. You will be supported as you move forward building the life you desire. You become aware of your deeper purpose, and I support you to stay on track as you move forward toward your goals. I work with clients for a minimum of three months. I have found that to see integration and embodiment of a change, a minimum of three months is necessary. It takes 21 days for a habit to be changed and it is great to have support during that time. Being FULLY supported throughout the process is priceless and this is what is missing from more traditional psychotherapy services.

WHAT MAKES CORE ENERGY COACHING UNIQUE?

The Core Energy Coaching process was created by Bruce D. Schneider using a variety of fields including consulting, psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, Reiki, mentoring, metaphysics, quantum mechanics, NLP, emotional intelligence and leadership development. The relationship between a client and psychotherapist/Coach is an alliance that allows clients to thrive in the midst of change instead of just making it through. The focus is on what a client “really” wants in life, identifying the energetic blocks that hold them back from having success that is defined by them.
