Carol Kauffman PhD provides a helpful analogy in the Disrupt Yourself Podcast to visualise the difference between coaching, consulting, and counselling:
Imagine there are three houses next to each other. And the thing is, there are some similar rooms in each of the houses. You may be doing the exact same thing, but you have to remember which house you are in. What is your mission? What is your purpose in this conversation?
She also offers a helpful way to navigate the difference between therapy and coaching:
“In therapy, you follow the trail of tears with the goal of finding the pain and helping the person heal. In coaching, you follow the trail of dreams.”
