What is the difference between coaching and psychotherapy?

Coaching is future-focused and goal-driven; appropriate when there is no clinical picture. Psychotherapy can go into the past and treats clinical conditions. We assess together in the intake and redirect if needed.

Is life coaching scientific?

Modern life coaching is built on behavioral science — Atomic Habits, BJ Fogg's Tiny Habits, Stanford's Designing Your Life. It is not "positive thinking" slogans but measurable action.

Standard packages are 6 and 12 sessions. 6 for a single focus area (e.g. sleep/health rhythm); 12 for a life-wide repositioning.

Is online coaching different from in-person?

No difference in effectiveness. Online is the default format for busy professionals or clients in other cities/countries.

Will the "homework" be hard to do?

No. We use the Tiny Habits framework — "minimum viable habit" steps starting at 30 seconds per day, almost willpower-free. They scale up over time.

Can my goal be "make more money"?

Yes — financial goals are common: budgeting, limiting beliefs about money, earn-save-invest balance. We do not give investment advice (not our scope); we work on financial hygiene.

My partner/family don't support my change — is that a problem?

Very common. We work on "getting support from your system" and family communication when needed. Personal change often means redefining relationships around you.

A closer look

Life coaching does not "tell you what to do" — it helps you discover what you actually want, by asking the right questions. Led by Psk. Yasemin KAYA, we follow an ICF-aligned solution-focused approach. Structured 6-12 session programs across goal-setting, habit design, motivation, financial hygiene, healthy life rhythm and "coming back to yourself." We know the line between coaching and therapy: if there is a clinical picture (depression, anxiety, etc.), the right door is psychotherapy — not coaching — and we will tell you so transparently.

Methodology

We follow the ICF (International Coaching Federation) competency framework with a solution-focused approach. Core tools: GROW model, Wheel of Life, Atomic Habits framework (James Clear), Designing Your Life methodology (Stanford d.school) and Tiny Habits (BJ Fogg) for behavior change. Typical program is 6-12 sessions of 60 minutes each, with small measurable action steps between sessions. We preserve the critical line between coaching and therapy: coaching is future-focused and goal-oriented; therapy goes into the past when needed and treats clinical conditions.

Who Is It For?

People in transitions: Approaching or past 30, beginning to question their current life.
Goal-talkers who don't execute: Clear ideals, hard time taking action.
Managers & entrepreneurs: Can't make time for personal goals in the work intensity.
Parents who "lost themselves": Want to rebuild individual identity within parenthood.
People without a clinical picture who want "better": No therapy-level issue, just a needed life calibration.

Why us?

Coaching led by a psychologist: Psk. Yasemin KAYA recognizes when coaching should become therapy — clinical patterns other coaches may miss.
Evidence-based frameworks: Atomic Habits, Tiny Habits, Designing Your Life — not intuition, but models backed by decades of research.
Measurable goals: Every session ends with a SMART goal + homework + follow-up next time.
Time-bounded program: No "endless coaching" — 6 or 12 sessions with clear scope.
Online accessibility: Online is the default format and fits a busy schedule.

Prerequisites & expectations

Two core requirements: commitment to at least 6 sessions (showing up even when the initial excitement fades) and willingness to take small actions between sessions. If there is a clinical-level picture (moderate-to-severe depression, panic disorder, OCD, etc.), coaching is not recommended — we assess this together in the intake and redirect to psychotherapy when appropriate.
