Therapy vs. Coaching - Which One Do You and Your Mom Need?In this Q&A episode, I tackle a listener's question about when to choose family therapy versus coaching for mother-daughter relationships. Many people feel confused about the difference between these approaches, and knowing which path to take can save you time, money, and frustration. I break down the fundamental difference: therapy looks backward to process trauma and understand triggers, while coaching looks forward to build new skills and create better relationships. I explain why family therapy requires both mother and daughter to be emotionally available for deep vulnerability, and how my Reconnection Rescue program takes a different approach by acknowledging hurt without camping out in it. You'll learn four key questions to help you decide which path is right for your situation, plus why finding someone you genuinely connect with matters more than their credentials alone.With this episode you'll be able to:Understand the core difference between therapy (backward-looking) and coaching (forward-looking)Assess whether your mother is emotionally available for deep therapeutic workRecognize when significant trauma requires individual therapy firstLearn why relationship healing happens best inside relationships with trusted professionalsEvaluate your ultimate goal: processing past hurt versus building future connectionUnderstand why some mothers shut down in therapy but thrive in coaching environmentsNavigate the decision between individual healing and joint relationship workDon't forget that you can schedule a free consultation call through my website if you want to explore whether therapy or coaching might be right for your specific situation.Connect with Brittney:Instagram: @theBrittneyScottWebsite: www.brittneymscott.comConsultation to work with BrittneyFree ResourcesMentioned resources:Reconnection Rescue coaching program (13 weeks, 90-minute sessions)Free consultation calls to discuss your specific needsIndividual therapy recommendations for significant traumaQuestion submission form for future podcast episodesHelp me reach more mothers and daughters by following the show & leaving a rating or review on Apple & Spotify!Keyword tags:therapy vs coaching, family therapy, mother daughter therapy, Reconnection Rescue, relationship coaching, trauma processing, mother wounds, healing approaches, Brittney Scott, emotional availability, therapeutic containers, mother daughter healing
