Understanding Behavioral Health Coaching:

A Behavioral Health Coach focuses more on the present rather than the past, and helps clients to identify and manage unhealthy behavioral patterns. We help clients to improve self-awareness, boundary setting, and resiliency which may improve relationships and reduce anxiety and depression.
Behavioral health coaches do not diagnose or treat mental illness or addictions. Coaching is not an effective option for those who are in crisis, actively addicted, struggling with mental illness, unable to care for themselves, or unmotivated to change. Coaching is, however, a viable option for those who are stable emotionally and willing to improve self-awareness, set goals, and be action-oriented.

Commonly Asked Questions

What's the difference between a counselor and a behavioral health coach?

Both counselors and coaches are helping professionals but the focus and purposes are different. Counseling is focused on uncovering pathology in individuals and providing a pathway to recovery and stability. Coaching is focused on helping individuals to make behavior changes, manage transition, and maximize their potential. Coaches do not diagnose or offer treatment. 

Am I good candidate for coaching?

A good candidate for behavioral health coaching is someone who is emotionally stable, motivated and ready to take actionable steps towards change. This type of coaching is ideal for individuals looking to improve their emotional well-being, set healthy boundaries, or overcome specific challenges like stress, anxiety, or relationship issues. It's particularly effective for those who prefer a forward-focused, solution-oriented approach to personal growth and development.

how can coaching help?

Coaching can help if you are facing challenges such as co-dependency or confusion about boundaries or personal responsibilities. It is also beneficial if you feel stagnant, immobilized, or unable to move forward in life. Coaching can address imbalances in your interpersonal relationships, whether you feel disengaged or overly enmeshed with others. Additionally, it can assist in improving your ability to express yourself effectively and break patterns of conflict. If you are uncertain about your career path, coaching can provide guidance and clarity.

Do professional coaches partner with counselors? 

Yes. Seeing a counselor and a behavioral health coach can provide valuable support for addressing mental and emotional challenges, offering both therapeutic guidance and practical strategies for positive change. A counselor helps individuals explore and process deeper emotional issues, while a behavioral health coach focuses on developing actionable steps to improve overall well-being. Together, these professionals offer a balanced approach to personal growth, helping individuals gain clarity, build resilience, and create lasting change in their lives.
