Hi..I am confused about the concept of Coaching and Psychotherapy. I have google'd it and it leaves me more confused...

I have heard the term 'Life Coaches".."Career Coaches"..understand how that concept can work, but how can Coaching be used instead of psychotherapy for the more pathological disorders...and even Trauma based disorders...

I dont know..it sound from what I read that most do it because it doesnt have so many client strings attached and since insurance dosent pay for it..its a little more lucrative for the practioner..again..sounds a little to much like "heal yourself for the Gipper" it is very dynamic based...is that a good thing when dealing with really bad deep stuff..when you are not suppose to form an attachment with your "Coach"..seems to me it would be very hard to work thru anything using the "Drive-thru" method... any input would be appreciated....
