Life Coaching Therapists in North Carolina
I specialize in supporting individuals, families, or couples at each stage of life: families and teens preparing for college; adults contemplating career change; couples planning to marry or experiencing relationship difficulties; and women and men adjusting to aging, retirement, or conflicts with adult children.
Through the power of relationship, we clarify your concerns, identify life stressors, and explore personal strengths. I recommend practical steps to heal your pain (grief, abuse, anxiety, depression) through developing your coping skills (reframing negative thoughts, communicating effectively, setting boundaries, seeking community support, meditating, journaling, exercising) to reach your goals.

I think the secret to successful therapy is developing a solid therapeutic partnership from a real- life approach.
Talking with a therapist is a way to take a step back from your daily routine and understand how large and small stressors are affecting you. Your emotional health has an impact on all of your relationships, both personal and professional, and seeking therapy can unlock new ways of thinking that can help you make progress in every area of your life.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
