VITAL WorkLife is here to help you connect with a qualified professional who will make you feel comfortable and supported every step of the way.
Counseling usually focuses on addressing past or present mental health challenges, helping you heal and build resilience. Coaching, on the other hand, is future-oriented, focusing on personal or professional development, goal setting, and enhancing performance. If you're dealing with emotional pain or mental health issues, counseling is likely the best fit. If you're looking to achieve specific goals or improve your performance, coaching might be more suitable. We can also help you assess your needs and guide you to the right resource.
In both coaching and counseling, you'll find a safe, confidential space to explore your thoughts and feelings. Sessions are typically scheduled regularly and follow a structured agenda. In counseling, you might delve into past experiences to understand root causes. In coaching, you'll often engage in thought-provoking discussions to identify solutions and take action. The process is collaborative, and your coach or therapist will provide guidance and support tailored to your specific needs.
Yes. Confidentiality is an important element in both coaching and counseling. Your sessions and any information shared will be kept private, and nothing will be shared with your employer or anyone else without your consent. If you are at risk of harming yourself or others, counselors (and some coaches) are required to report it.
The benefits are diverse and highly personal. Through counseling, you can experience relief from stress, anxiety, or burnout, improve your emotional regulation, and build stronger coping skills. Coaching can help you gain clarity on your goals, enhance your communication skills, and boost your confidence. Both can lead to increased self-awareness, improved relationships, and a greater sense of overall well-being.
