Episode 9: Mentorship vs. Spiritual Direction

In this episode, we talk about:

• The (simplified) difference between Psychotherapy, Coaching, Spiritual Direction, and IDDM or Mentorship
• Psychotherapy: a regulated professional field, with an education in the psychological sciences as they fit into a medical model
• Spiritual Direction: Limited to the spiritual dimension of the human person, with the goal of deepening your relationship with God
• Coaching: Oriented toward any goal in any niche
• Mentorship: Taking the best of all 3 fields and uniting them into one modality
