Spiritual Coaching
What is Spiritual Coaching?
Spiritual coaching is a holistic, personal form of life guidance that helps individuals explore and strengthen their faith beliefs, practices, and well-being. A spiritual coach like me assists clients in deepening their relationship with God, developing a greater sense of purpose, and aligning their lives with their values. Positive outcomes include greater inner peace, sense of fulfillment, and joy.
I combine therapeutic coaching methods with Christian principles to help people integrate faith into various aspects of their lives. This approach emphasizes personal and spiritual growth and encourages clients to strengthen their connection to God. I rely on Scripture and a non-denominational faith perspective to offer a unique framework for self-discovery that encompasses both the secular and the sacred.
I focus on living a Fruit of the Spirit life. That’s a biblical reference, but universal message, no matter where you are in your spiritual walk or what you do or don't believe. The nine fruits are: Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self-Control. Given the increasingly fallen state of the world, many of us seek connection to something bigger to provide hope and explain the meaning of our lives and the events happening around us.

How Spiritual Coaching Differs from Counseling & Therapy
Spiritual and Christian coaching differ from counseling and therapy by focusing exclusively on an individual's spiritual well-being and personal growth. While counseling and therapy address emotional and psychological health, spiritual and Christian coaching are future-oriented and center on one's spiritual beliefs, practices, and inner exploration. I can help you define your spiritual purpose, and integrate it into your everyday life.
Counseling and therapy employ interventions to address issues such as anxiety, depression or trauma, often by dissecting the past. In contrast, spiritual and Christian coaches like me don't diagnose or treat mental health conditions, but we're trained to identify when a client may benefit from a referral to a licensed clinical counselor. I operate in a proactive, goal-oriented space for clients to enhance their spiritual relationships by providing guidance, support, and accountability for specific faith outcomes.
My brand of spiritual and Christian coaching blends the best aspects of traditional counseling and traditional coaching. Using therapeutic coaching, I offer a hybrid method for well-being that combines the essential elements of therapy with coaching. This method recognizes that individuals may have emotional or psychological factors impacting their ability to achieve optimal spiritual joy. People who are especially invested in personal and professional development may have both a coach and counselor. I firmly believe in both modalities.
