Coaching and therapy are both helpful for parents, and are often complimentary.
Coaching sessions will focus on your goals and challenges and give you practical strategies to try right away. The aim is to provide you the tools to make you more effective and confident in your parenting decisions.
Therapy often focuses on the past as well the the present and addresses clinical-level symptoms like depression, anxiety, trauma and grief. A therapist can diagnose certain conditions, while a coach cannot.
