The International Coaching Federation (ICF) defines coaching as “a partnership with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.” Coaching involves working with self-aware, motivated people who want to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals more quickly and are willing to take personal responsibility for their own success.
Coaches help clients lead more balanced lives that better reflect their personal values, priorities and talents. Coaches operate under the premise that the client is the expert on his or her own life, career, family, etc., and the Coach’s job is to keep the client focused on their agenda, goals and actions while believing that the responsibility for personal changes lies within client.
Coaching vs. Professional Counseling
Coaching is an “action-oriented process” that drives clients to determine not only where they are headed but how they are going to get there.
Coaching differs from therapy or professional counseling in that the client must already be mentally healthy in order to be coachable. The focus of the coaching process is more present and future oriented rather than on healing emotional problems, issues or pain from the client’s past.
Benefits and Value of Having a Life Coach
Investing in an ICF credentialed coach is investing in yourself. As your life coach, I am your ally for intentional change. Life Coaching is perfect for anyone who feels stuck or confused about any aspect of their life and who is ready to create positive change for themselves. Coaching is also for anyone who has chosen a new direction and would like to be supported, guided, and challenged as they move forward in their lives. Coaching pairs deep learning with action so that you actually see measurable results, and progression in your life. In a relatively short period of time, you’ll move toward a more fulfilled, balanced, and productive life.
