Before considering Life Coaching as an option, you must know the following:
- Because Life Coaching is not regulated by any state bylaws or regulations, insurance companies do not pay for these services. Therefore, anyone receiving life coaching will be self-pay. Life Coaching is not the same thing as Therapy. Life Coaching primary focuses on helping individuals to reach a specific goal and/or make a change in their life via empowering, strategizing, identifying and alleviating obstacles, and providing accountability. Therapy on the other hand, helps clients work through issues, at times focusing on the past, processing, and more problem focused. Unlike those who are life coaches, a therapist must have at least a master's degree in some area of mental health and are required to have a license to practice.
