Welcome back! and I am back! Exciting news!
It has been sometime since I have posted here. The last couple of years everyone has has to adjust to many changes in their lives and I am no exception. After over a decade working as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist seeing hundreds of clients, as a Certified Life Coach and Certified Hypnotherapist; the pandemic changed my practice.
I retired from working as a Marriage and Family Therapist last year. I missed seeing clients in person but felt that Zoom was not adequate for seeing couples, families and those with mental disorders. It was a very difficult decision and to continue my licensing requirements I would have had to attend classes to meet my CEU hours.
Many of my former clients and those seeking a therapist have touched out to me for therapy. I don't believe anyone would have believed we would still be in the grips of the crisis with this virus. Reluctantly, I have decided to not return to working in my role as a therapist. However, I am returning to life coaching.
I do want to make it clear that life coaching is not therapy. There are many huge differences but there are some similarities. Addressing the main difference; therapy is for those diagnosed with a mental disorder. Similar to therapy, life coaching provides clients with the tools that to make changes, adjust to change and to accept changes to their lives.
I feel that in using Zoom for sessions with my coaching clients will be a great tool. It is used more and more by many companies as working at home as become the norm. I am excited to get back to working with clients and helping them work to improve their lives.
If you would like to hear more or set up a session please send me a private message. I do wish to continue with using strict confidentiality with my clients.
I will be posting more about how coaching works and some of the programs that I offer.
Make this an awesome week!
