While emotional issues may come up in the course of coaching – and you do learn more about and develop yourself in the process – coaching primarily focuses on helping you achieve specific goals through taking action and developing constructive behaviours, rather than on healing psychological issues. Coaching focuses more on the present and future than the past. It is about generating possibilities and moving through any blocks or obstacles, rather than healing deep-seated emotional issues and traumas.
While Suzanne McGillivray has training in psychotherapy, she uses her experience and understanding to better assist you in your process and will be coach and not therapist. Coaching and therapy can be mutually supportive, and some people work simultaneously with a coach and a therapist, or use coaching as the next step after therapy.
Suzanne offers self development services through her Quest Programs
