If you've never worked with a coach before, you probably have questions. Here's an honest look at what coaching is, how it works, and what you can expect from working with Horizon Line Coaching.
Coaching is not therapy. Therapists help you heal from past wounds and process trauma. Coaches help you move forward toward future goals. I work with healthy, functional people who want to achieve more, not repair what's broken.
Coaching is not consulting. Consultants analyze your situation and tell you what to do. Coaches believe you already have the answers inside you—my job is to help you access them, clarify them, and act on them.
Coaching is not mentoring. Mentors share their wisdom and experience, saying "here's what worked for me." Coaches ask powerful questions and create space for you to discover what will work for you.
So What IS Coaching?
Professional coaching is a collaborative partnership designed to help you:
Gain clarity on what you truly want and why it matters
Identify obstacles (both external and internal) that keep you stuck
Design strategies that align with your values and strengths
Take consistent action toward meaningful goals
Stay accountable to your commitments and adjust as needed
Build confidence in your ability to create the life you envision
