What technology do you use to coach?
Zoom (a video conferencing service) which is used on a laptop, computer or phone. Wherever you have audio/video ability. Zoom is free to my clients.
Is coaching the same as counseling?
No. Counseling is more listening and giving advice and working on past pains and situations that are impacting you currently. Coaching is attentively listening and asking the right questions to help clients to reach their goals. Those questions are a combination of probing, expansive and exploratory questions. Coaching focuses on what you want now and how to reach it (present and future). Both counseling and coaching are important, but they are not the same.
