How is Retirement Coaching Different from Therapy?

It's not therapy and is not paced like therapy.  The differences are:

  • Therapy:  topics of discussion range into every area of the client's life.
  • Retirement coaching:  clients are focused on how they want to spend their time, short- and long-term, during the years after they leave full-time work.         
  • Retirement coaching may touch on other areas of a person's life, but always in the context of their overall goals in retirement.  Financial, legal, or medical advice is not part of retirement coaching--you will need to check with your specialists in each of those areas if you need that assistance.
  • Therapy:  occurs weekly; sometimes even more frequently.
  • Retirement coaching:  clients determine their own pace and frequency of visits, often scheduling visits weeks or even months apart to allow time to complete any self-prescribed "homework."
My goal is not to “keep you forever,” but rather to help you get going, and then GO.
