Absolutely. Many clients benefit from a combination approach—using counseling to heal and coaching to grow. At EJ Behavioral Health Institute, both options are available to meet you where you are.

Individuals who are generally functioning well but want to improve self-awareness, mindset, or performance in areas like career, relationships, or overall life satisfaction.

Those struggling with emotional distress, mental-health symptoms, trauma, or relationship difficulties who want therapeutic guidance from a licensed clinician.

• Counseling looks backward and inward—it helps you process, heal, and recover.
• Coaching looks forward and outward—it helps you grow, set goals, and create change.

Coaching supports individuals who want to enhance their emotional balance, improve motivation, set boundaries, achieve goals, or develop healthy habits. It’s future-focused and emphasizes progress, not diagnosis.

 Counseling is a professional mental-health service provided by a licensed therapist. It focuses on identifying, understanding, and treating emotional, behavioral, or psychological challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship conflict. Counseling helps clients heal from the past and develop coping strategies for long-term emotional well-being.
