Coaching is not therapy. The Lion's Threshold provides private life and leadership coaching services. It is not a licensed mental health practice and does not provide therapy, counseling, psychological treatment, or medical advice of any kind.

Nature of Coaching Services

The Lion's Threshold offers private, one-on-one coaching focused on identity, leadership, life transitions, decision-making, and personal accountability. Coaching is a forward-looking, goal-oriented engagement designed to help individuals gain clarity, make decisions, and take intentional action.

Coaching is distinct from and is not a substitute for:

Referral Policy

Freddie Gladney is not a licensed therapist, psychologist, counselor, or medical professional. When a client's needs fall outside the scope of coaching — including but not limited to clinical mental health concerns, trauma, crisis situations, or relationship issues requiring licensed therapeutic intervention — the coach will recommend the client pursue the appropriate licensed professional.

No Guaranteed Outcomes

Coaching results vary by individual. The Lion's Threshold does not guarantee specific outcomes, income results, career changes, or life improvements. Results depend on the client's commitment, effort, honesty, and individual circumstances.

Confidentiality

All coaching conversations are treated with strict confidentiality. Client information will not be disclosed to third parties without written consent, except as required by law or when there is reasonable concern for the safety of the client or others.

Independent Practice

The Lion's Threshold is an independent professional coaching practice operated by Freddie Gladney. All services offered here are standalone and are not connected to, contingent upon, or a pathway into any other business, organization, or venture. No business, investment, or income opportunity of any kind is offered, promoted, or implied through this practice.
