FAQs
How is coaching different from therapy?
1
Coaching and therapy are different, and they often complement one another beautifully.
Therapy may focus on diagnosing and treating mental health conditions or processing past experiences.
Coaching is a collaborative, future-oriented process that helps you deepen self-awareness, reconnect with your strengths, clarify what matters most, and move intentionally toward the life you want to build.
Healing Through It is a coaching practice, not a therapy practice. I do not diagnose or treat mental health conditions, and coaching is not a substitute for licensed mental health care. When appropriate, I encourage clients to work with a licensed therapist as part of their overall support system.
How do I get started?
Getting started is simple. The Discovery Call is the first step, which is a free, 30-min casual conversation to get us started. You can book your first call here, or reach out via email or the contact page.
2
Are sessions virtual?
Yes. Individual coaching sessions take place virtually, so you can join from a private, comfortable space that works for you.
Your meeting information will be included with your appointment confirmation.
3
Do you accept insurance?
Healing Through It does not bill health insurance. Coaching is a non-clinical service and sessions are private-pay. Current program options and pricing are available on the Coaching page. Payment plans are available.
I also reserve a limited number of complimentary coaching spaces for individuals who are experiencing financial hardship and would otherwise be unable to access support. These are offered on a case-by-case basis and as availability allows.

Is there a “right” time to seek support after a loss?
4
There isn’t one timeline that everyone is supposed to follow.
Some people want support almost immediately. Others find that grief becomes harder months, or even years later, once the initial shock has passed or life around them has seemingly returned to normal. Grieving is highly individual, and there is no single timetable that determines when you “should” be okay.
You don’t need to wait until things are unbearable, and you haven’t waited too long either.
Do I have to be grieving a death to work with you?
5
No. While supporting people through the death of someone they love is deeply important to me, grief can accompany many kinds of loss and change. My primary areas of focus are grief, stress, and life transitions.
That can look very different from person to person. You might be adjusting to life after losing someone you love, experiencing burnout, navigating changes in relationships or family dynamics, struggling with uncertainty, dealing with the impact of a loved one’s addiction or mental health challenges, or simply realizing that you don’t feel quite like yourself anymore.
You don’t need to fit neatly into a category for us to work together.
