Therapy vs Coaching

As a mental health practitioner, I am able to use the tools I have learned during my training. However, therapy is a relationship that serves to process trauma, and work directly with your presenting problems that usually involve your personal life, it might involve a diagnosis and a treatment plan, and it is non directive, meaning I will not give you advise as a counselor either for you life or your career. You find the answers yourself. Becuase of licensing laws, I can only serve TX residents, but hope to expand them soon. 

As a coach, I use my knowledge and tools, and we can work together focusing on specific areas of your performing career. However, we will not process trauma (although it might come up in our conversations) or focus on your personal life as a whole. Coaching is directive, meaning I can guide you in a certain direction focusing ONLY on your career issues. Coaching can be provided to traveling artists nationwide.
