Some specific benefits of coaching may include:
If you are experiencing mental health concerns, it is important to seek help from a licensed health professional such as a licensed therapist or physician. We do not provide therapy services at Raeburn Coaching – we do not provide therapy, diagnosing, evaluations, or treatment for mental health disorders.
Coaching it is not the same as therapy and should not be used to substitute therapy. If you are experiencing a psychiatric condition, we urge you to speak to a licensed mental health professional in your state.
At Raeburn Coaching, we believe in delivering a high-quality service that ensures each client receives the dedicated time, attention, and energy they deserve.
Limiting the number of clients we accept enables us to maintain this high standard of service. We understand that meaningful change requires more than just a one-size-fits-all approach.
By limiting the number of clients, we can ensure a highly personalized, immersive, and effective coaching experience for everyone we work with.
Our focus is on quality rather than quantity, enabling us to foster deeper connections with our clients and helping them achieve their goals in a supportive, focused environment.
Therapy is a form of treatment that is focused on addressing mental health disorders, such as depression and anxiety. Therapy is provided by licensed health professionals, such as psychologists (PsyD or PhD), psychiatrists (MD or DO), and Master’s level therapists (LMHC, LCSW, LMSW, LMFT, LPC).
Therapy is specifically designed to address and treat mental health concerns. Therapists employ evidence-based techniques to help individuals explore and resolve emotional, psychological, and behavioral issues.
On the other hand, coaching is a collaborative process where coaches partner with clients to identify their goals and develop effective strategies for achieving them. Coaches focus on facilitating positive change, enhancing performance, and unlocking potential. It is important to note that coaching does not involve diagnosing, treating, or evaluating mental health disorders.
Coaching can be a valuable resource for individuals seeking personal development, goal achievement, and improved overall satisfaction in life. However, it is essential to understand that coaching is not a substitute for therapy or medical treatment. If you are experiencing clinical depression, anxiety, or any other mental health concerns, it is crucial to seek help from a licensed health professional such as a therapist or physician.
Please note – We do not provide therapy services at Raeburn Coaching. If you require therapy or mental health support, it is recommended to consult with a licensed therapist or healthcare provider in your state, who specializes in addressing your specific needs.
Coaching is a dynamic process, shaped by the individual’s unique aspirations and context. Whether personal or professional, the aims of coaching can be as diverse as the clients themselves. That being said, there are some common themes that frequently surface in coaching engagements.
In the realm of personal coaching, clients often come with a desire to enhance their life satisfaction, seeking a greater sense of clarity and balance. They might aim to navigate challenging life transitions, cultivate more meaningful relationships, or refine their decision-making processes.
On the professional front, clients frequently look to elevate their leadership skills, enhance communication, and boost their performance. They may seek strategies for dealing with workplace challenges, envisioning career growth, or balancing their professional and personal lives effectively.
While these are common goals, coaching is inherently personalized. It’s about carving out your own path, defining success in your own terms, and collaboratively creating strategies to move towards that envisioned future. It’s about you, your goals, your growth, and your unique journey towards enrichment and fulfillment. Dr. Raeburn can help you identify your priorities and develop a plan to make progress in the areas that are most important to you, providing support and guidance along the way.

The ideal duration for coaching can vary depending on the individual and their specific goals & needs. However, we believe that a 1 year commitment is often ideal because it allows our clients to build a strong foundation, make meaningful progress, and achieve lasting results.
Not only does a 1-year coaching package, help clients establish clear goals, plans, and allows us to results, but it also allows us to adjust directionality based on the client’s evolving progress and evolving goals.
Additionally, a longer coaching commitment provides time to work on obstacles that are more challenging to overcome; they usually include mindset, habits, and underlying beliefs. A 1 year coaching package may be especially important for those who are looking to make significant changes in their lives or overcome long-standing challenges.
Ultimately, the ideal duration for coaching will depend on the individual, including their specific challenges, goals, and needs.
It ultimately depends on your goals and needs as a client.
An Introductory Package can be a good option if you have a specific issues or challenge that you want to address in a short-term, focused manner.
On the other hand, longer-term coaching packages are generally far more comprehensive and allow for deeper exploration + development of your personal growth and goals.
Longer-term coaching involves a series of sessions over a set period of time, which can provide a more structured and consistent approach to your coaching journey.
It’s important to communicate your needs to Dr. Raeburn during your meet & greet call if you’d like help determining which coaching package may be best for you.
