A counsellor tells you what to do
A therapist shows you what to do
A life coach supports you in your chosen tools (not to say that a life couch can’t show you a variety and you then you choose).
The problem in the UK is none of these are official legal titles so a life coach can call themself a counsellor or therapist. A therapist can call themself a counsellor or a life coach and a counsellor can call themself a therapist or a life coach. And this is where confusion sets in even though the roles are clearly defined.
