The International Coaching Federation (ICF) is the world’s largest and most recognized organization of professionally trained coaches. Representing executive coaches, life coaches, leadership coaches, relationship coaches, career coaches, and more, ICF’s mission is to advance coaching so that it becomes an integral part of a thriving society.

ICF defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity, and leadership.

We all have goals we want to reach, challenges we’re striving to overcome and times when we feel stuck. Partnering with a coach can change your life, setting you on a path to greater personal and professional fulfillment.

Coaching vs. Counseling
Coaching is not therapy, counseling, advice-giving, mental healthcare, or treatment for substance abuse or any addictive behavior. The coach is not functioning as a licensed mental health professional, therapist, or counselor, and coaching is not intended as a replacement for counseling, psychiatric interventions, treatment for mental illness, recovery from past abuse, professional medical advice, financial assistance, legal counsel, or other professional services.

Coaching is forward-focused, counseling tends to deal more with past issues in which you may find yourself stuck and struggling.  A simple rule of thumb to know whether you should be coaching or counseling:  If your past is an issue, counseling is your best option.  If your past is simply a fact (even if difficult or negative), you are probably ready for coaching.  

Coaching vs. Consulting
A coach focuses on helping you walk your unique path to success.  As the client, you are responsible for the results you receive as a result of coaching.  I help you discover how to become more of who you need to be to achieve those results and identify what you may need to do differently.  A consultant takes responsibility for a specific project, acting as a specialist, providing specific deliverables and knowledge.  I believe in your ability to fully experience your potential and will provide a safe, consistent space for you to develop your potential.

Coaching vs. Mentoring
As a coach, I focus on the development of people in general and the development of your unique path in particular.  A mentor guides you towards a specific path of development.  I am more interested in helping you on the unique and divinely ordained path that is meant for you – which may be quite different than the path I have taken, even though the purpose of our paths may be very similar.  My job as your coach is not to tell you what to do, but rather to help you uncover the answers that lie within you.  Consider me a catalyst for your success.
