Therapy and therapeutic coaching share similarities, but they are not the same. Therapy is a clinical treatment that helps individuals resolve emotional, mental, and behavioral challenges that are impacting their overall functioning and well-being. A licensed therapist utilizes evidence-based techniques and interventions to assist clients in addressing and overcoming their difficulties. On the other hand, therapeutic coaching is focused on helping individuals achieve specific goals in their personal or professional lives. It is an action-oriented approach that emphasizes the present and future rather than the past. While both therapy and therapeutic coaching can help individuals improve their overall quality of life, they differ in their approaches and goals. Therapy is typically recommended for individuals with mental health conditions, while therapeutic coaching is more suitable for individuals seeking to make positive changes in their lives.

Under the Federal No Surprises Act (H.R. 133 – effective January 1, 2022), you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
