Frequently Asked Questions

Life coaching is a collaborative, goal-focused partnership where a coach helps you clarify priorities, set achievable goals, and create an action plan. Coaching uses powerful questions, accountability, and tools to help you move from insight to results — you stay in the driver’s seat while the coach supports momentum and clarifies choices.

Coaching is future- and goal-oriented: it focuses on action, performance, and creating the life you want now and next. Therapy (or counseling) often addresses diagnosing and treating mental health conditions, deeper healing, and processing past trauma. If you have a mental-health diagnosis or serious emotional difficulties, a licensed therapist may be the right choice; many clients benefit from both therapy and coaching at different times.

Results depend on your goals and commitment, but clients commonly report increased clarity, better decision-making, stronger habits, and measurable progress toward specific goals within 6–12 weeks of regular sessions. Typical coaching engagements run as short packages (4–8 sessions) or multi-month programs for deeper change — we’ll recommend the best structure after a free discovery conversation.

A typical session (usually 45–60 minutes) begins with a quick check-in on progress, clarifies the session’s focus, uses questioning and practical tools to uncover options, and ends with concrete action steps and accountability. Between sessions you may get short exercises, journal prompts, or tiny experiments to practice new habits.

Coaching fees vary by experience and specialization; many coaches charge somewhere between about $75–$200 per session, or $300–$1,500+ for monthly packages depending on the level (personal vs executive) and included support. I offer a single session for just $30, a 5-session starter for just $125 and a 10-session life change opportunity for $225. In the future I have plans to add a group coaching option.

Good question. Many professional coaches choose accredited training and certifications. I am currently studying coaching and counseling methods and have finished my “Life Coach Mentoring” program. I follow ethical referral practices. I also continually study coaching methods and evidence-based tools to ensure safe, effective support. If coaching uncovers clinical issues, I’ll refer you to an appropriate licensed professional.

Yes — the best first step is a short (15–20 minute) free discovery call where we clarify your goal, timeline, and fit. After that I’ll recommend a package or single session. Click below to choose a time that works for you.
