Life Coaching and Counseling: Why I Also Offer Life Coaching Alongside Clinical Counseling

As a licensed counselor and doctoral-level clinician, people sometimes ask: Why do you offer life coaching AND Counseling? The answer is simple — some people don’t need therapy. They need forward momentum. Therapy is essential when you’re healing, but life coaching becomes powerful when you’re ready to grow. That’s why I integrated both into my practice. As a life coach in Tulsa, I help clients who are stable but stuck — people who are high-functioning but not fully fulfilled, and who want real strategy, not surface talk.

Life Coaching and Counseling Are Not the Same

Therapy helps you stabilize, heal, and resolve emotional wounds. Coaching helps you build systems, set goals, and execute. Many of my clients no longer meet clinical criteria for a diagnosis — but they still want guidance, clarity, and personal growth. That’s where life coaching in Tulsa comes in.


Why I Started Offering Life Coaching and Counseling

I’ve spent over 9 years leading behavioral health teams, managing crisis care, and training clinicians. What I noticed is that even after healing, people often need help with:

  • Rebuilding confidence
  • Setting boundaries
  • Making bold decisions
  • Leveling up in career or relationships
    That work doesn’t always belong in therapy — but it thrives in coaching.

Who I Coach

Life coaching is ideal for:

  • Professionals ready to grow beyond old patterns
  • Entrepreneurs needing direction and accountability
  • Men seeking strength without shutdown
  • High-functioning clients who want structure, not sugarcoating

These are the clients who don’t want a diagnosis — they want a strategy.


How Life Coaching Fits at Revive

Every session is customized. Whether you’re coming out of therapy or bypassing it entirely, life coaching here isn’t fluffy. It’s actionable, strategic, and forward-focused. That’s what makes it work.

Ready to Move Forward with Purpose?

If you’re stable but stuck, healed but uncertain, or simply ready to stop circling the same goals — life coaching may be the clarity you’ve been missing. Let’s build something real.
