Therapy vs Life Coaching in Dubai | UAE Coaching

Therapist and life coach working with clients in Dubai - UAE Coaching

A lot of people who come to UAE Coaching feel lost or overwhelmed and not sure where to turn.

“Should I go to therapy?”
“Is this something coaching can help with?”
“Does my teenager need a psychologist?

All fair questions and as a UK Psychology graduate and an NLP Coach in Dubai for the last 17+ years here is my honest answer to this common question

Therapy helps you heal.

It’s typically for people dealing with depression, trauma, or emotional regulation challenges.

Therapists work with you to unpack the past, process pain, and move toward emotional stability.

It’s deep work and can be important to start there.

Coaching helps you grow.

Life coaching is different.

It’s not about diagnosing an issue ior saying you have a problem. It’s about direction and growth. To understand where you are now and help you get to where you want too. A job of a coach is to support you to get there quicker through powerful questions, tools and techniques.

If you’re feeling stuck, low in confidence, anxious, unclear on next steps, or tired of repeating the same patterns then coaching is exactly what you need.

At UAE Coaching, we focus on:

  • building confidence
  • understanding and working on your strengths
  • helping you gain awareness and clarity
  • and helping you (or your child) take action in the present, not live in the past.

The past is useful for learning yet it’s the present that will get you to the place you want to get too.

Is coaching right for you (or your child or teen)?

Here’s how I explain it:

  • If you or child are clinically depressed and in deep crisis, therapy is probably best as a starting point.
  • If you or yoru child is functioning but not feeling like your best self then coaching will help you shift quickly.I have seen it wiith hundreds of team and I’s clients over the years.

Coaching in Dubai That’s Actually Personal

Whether you’re coming to coaching to:

  • Support your child through a difficult time and build up their confidence or give them early leadership habits or
  • Help you find direction and get back to your best self or
  • Understand your strengths and grow into a leadership role (or get one)
