In recent years there has been growing attention to the differences between life coaching and therapy. While many of these differences have been overstated, life coaching and therapy are both valuable, unique, and distinct services. Psychotherapy is a form of treatment focused on diagnosing, reducing symptoms, and restoring functioning. Life coaching is about upgrading your life, optimizing performance, and fulfilling your highest potential. Even within each of these fields, there are many different foundational frameworks, theories, and strategies to consider.  The choice to work with a life coach or therapist is a personal decision and depends on the nature of your problems and goals.  While we do not offer therapy at Alchemy Total Wellness, our Director of Life Coaching has experience practicing as a therapist and can help you determine the best option.
