Differences Between Coaching, Mentoring, Therapy & Consulting
Coaching is a collaborative, client centered process that supports individuals in increasing self-awareness, clarifying goals, and taking purposeful action toward desired outcomes.
Coaching differs from other modalities in that therapy often focuses on past experiences and healing, while mentoring and consulting are expert driven and centered on providing guidance and advice.
The impact of coaching is meaningful, with studies showing that 80% of people report increased self-confidence, and more than 70% see improvements in performance, relationships, and communication skills. *
