Relational Wellness Coaching is a non-clinical, forward-focused process that helps individuals, couples, and families identify goals, build practical skills, explore patterns, and create meaningful steps toward personal growth and everyday wellness.Coaching may support areas such as communication, relationships, parenting, personal growth, life transitions, confidence, boundaries, and navigating change.Clinical therapy is provided by a licensed mental health professional and is designed to assess and treat mental health conditions and other clinical concerns. Therapy may address emotional distress, trauma, psychological symptoms, and experiences from the past or present.The two serve different purposes, and in some situations, a person may participate in coaching while also receiving appropriate clinical or medical care.At Grace Shannon Wellness, we remain within the scope of non-clinical coaching and believe in appropriate referral when a client's needs extend beyond that scope.

No. Grace Shannon Wellness is a non-clinical Relational Wellness Coaching practice. Marchelle Brinson is a Relational Wellness Coach, not a licensed therapist or mental health provider.Our coaching services focus on personal growth, communication, relationships, family dynamics, wellness, practical skill-building, and navigating life transitions.Coaching does not provide psychotherapy, clinical counseling, diagnosis, or treatment of mental health conditions.When a client's needs fall outside the scope of non-clinical coaching, we encourage and may recommend connection with an appropriately qualified and licensed professional.

If, during the Discovery Call or at any point during coaching, it becomes clear that your needs may be better addressed through clinical mental health services, Marchelle will encourage you to connect with an appropriately qualified and licensed mental health professional.This may include concerns such as significant symptoms of depression or anxiety, trauma-related concerns, or other mental health needs that fall outside the scope of non-clinical coaching.Your well-being always comes first.Grace Shannon Wellness maintains a referral network of trusted licensed mental health professionals in the Palm Beach County area to help clients identify appropriate professional support when coaching is not the right fit.
