WHAT IS COACHING?

Coaching is often misunderstood and is frequently confused with counseling.

The Difference: Coaching focuses on forwarding the action in your life. It does not look back; it assesses where you are at the present time and assists you in becoming clear about what you want to attract to your life. In this sense, it is about today and the future. Coaching utilizes the art of inquiry and deep listening. It may be the first time in your life that you feel totally understood and that you are valued unconditionally.  The focus of coaching is to allow you to re-discover the many facets of who you are. This includes your strengths, gifts and talents; those aspects of yourself that you may be overlooking.

Coaching is a process that deals with the present moment and the future.  It is designed to allow you to determine what is perfect for you and to claim the life you choose for yourself.  Coaches Betty and Jim Healey invite you to sit in the "Heart Seat" a safe place for you to embark on your unique journey of self-discovery.

Is Coaching the same as Counseling?

The short answer is NO.

Coaching is about assessing where you are now, where you want to go, and how you plan to get there. It is not about examining how you became who you are today. Counselors assist in recovery, coaches specialize in discovery.

Why would I consider coaching?
