I got asked yesterday whether Iām a qualified psychologist or counsellor.
The honest answer is no. Iām a coach.
And I think itās important to say that clearly, because the line between coaching and therapy gets blurred a lot online, and women deserve to know what theyāre getting.
Therapists are trained for diagnosable mental health conditions, deep trauma, and crisis. Thatās not the work I do, and when a woman needs that, I refer her on. Every time.
What I do is help women who are functioning but quietly suffering. People-pleasing. Self-abandoning. Stuck in family patterns they didnāt choose. I help them come home to themselves.
To do that work, I bring:
š§” Seventeen years of teaching adults
š§” Four years of my own deep personal work: talk therapy, schema therapy, life coaching
š§” Formal life coach certification, and current training in trauma-informed work, because I want to keep deepening my skills
Iām not pretending to be something Iām not.
Iām a coach whoās lived this, and trained to guide other women through it.
If thatās the support youāre looking for, Iām here. If you need clinical care, Iāll always point you in the right direction.
Both are valid. Both are needed.
Knowing the difference is part of the work š§”
