What is the difference between a Psychiatrist & A Certified Life Coach?Typically, a a Psychiatrist has a medical degree and specialized in psych classes at the end of their education.

A Certified Life Coach is a guide who helps you find your own answers within. I do not claim to know everyone's answers. I have just done a substantial amount of inner work and have walked and talked with parts of our soul, so I can teach my clients about how to embark on their own journey and learn this way of life and journey. As a coach I am trained to help clients get "unstuck" and move forward in life.

There is a clear distinction between professional mental health services and life coaching. While both life coaches and mental health professionals seek to improve client wellness, educational and licensure requirements set the two apart. Coaches do not diagnose or treat mental-health-related disorders, but mental health professionals often do. While therapy focuses on mental health, abetting distress, and improving impaired functioning; life coaching focuses on setting and achieving goals.

I have worked through a lot of change and transformation myself. I've changed careers and schooling, initially I was going to law school to become a lawyer, when God told me that was not the path he for me. I trusted in him and took a leap of faith to open and run my coaching practice. I left the legal field where I held over 25 years of experience. I've relocated several times in life and have walked through several valleys and green pastures along the way. I personally have dealt with a lot of issues as a women from miscarriages, divorce, being a single mother, losing/finding yourself before/after children, blending families, surviving domestic violence, insecurities with self, living with chronic illness, and overcoming obstacles made to break me. All while learning and growing in my faith with each step. I believe it is my life experiences and my relationship with Jesus, that allows me to walk the journeys with my clients.

​

I wanted to create a place where my clients would not only feel safe to be authentic and vulnerable, but to know there was someone who can relate to their stories, uphold their values, and honor their beliefs in God. A place where my clients would know that God was at the center of each step we take on their journey. Each coaching packing is fully customized for you, based on where you are today in life, where you are headed, and your transition to becoming who God created you to be. You are provided with support, guidance, encouragement and accountability between sessions based on what we specifically discussed during our sessions. 

​

I ask that you pray about your decision to reach out to me and schedule your discovery call, so we can ensure we are the best fit with each other to walk your next chapter in life.
