The Misconception of Therapy vs. Coaching

The ongoing debate between therapy and coaching is often framed as a dichotomy that oversimplifies the complexities of both fields. This framing can lead to unnecessary conflict and misunderstanding, as each discipline serves different purposes and can complement one another. Instead of viewing them as mutually exclusive, it is more accurate to see them as overlapping fields with unique methodologies and goals. Addressing this misconception allows individuals to better discern what kind of support they might need for their specific circumstances.
