Therapeutic Coaching

What is the difference between Therapy and Therapeutic Coaching?

Therapeutic Coaching is a very modern approach that combines a wide range of techniques, including mindfulness and neuroscience. According to Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale, which is recognised by both academics and policymakers in the UK, including the NHS, coaching for wellbeing plays an important part in preventing mental health related health issues.

It can be used to help with personal issues, such as bereavement, returning to work, redundancy, relational issues, physical and emotional problems.

Therapy and Therapeutic Coaching are both professional services that can help people to work through emotional discomfort and set goals for future enhancement and healing, but they differ in their focus , goals and approach.

Focus

Therapy focuses on treating emotional distress and mental illness, including various relational concerns, while Therapeutic Coaching focuses on enhancing performance, usually in a specific area.

Goals

Therapy aims at working through the route of the issue that causes emotional distress, while Therapeutic Coaching focuses on change and action.

Approach

Therapy integrates various therapeutic modalities and delves in and out of your past experiences, explores potential trauma and a broad array of presenting issues, while Therapeutic Coaching usually focuses on a more narrow area of concern in present and future.

Training

Therapists are trained to work with those who are dealing with mental health issues, while the training for Therapeutic Coaches might not be as broad and deep in that respect.

Here, at London Trusted Therapy Harley Street, we recognise the value of Therapeutic Coaching and offer it as a part of your ongoing therapy, or as a separate service, based on clients’ presenting issues.
