Coaching vs Therapy


Coaching Vs Therapy

I am not a licensed therapist or a psychologist. As a Trauma Recovery Coach, my role will be support, inspire, guide and help you find your own strength, knowing and lasting healing. I believe will all possess an innate capacity to healing ourselves, no matter how deep the wounds are or long they have persisted. As your Trauma Recovery Coach I will support you in discovering and experience that inner power to heal directly.
